hi,
My system:
linux-2.4.21
yaffs2 work with Samsung K9F2G08UOM

I encountered a problem when delete multi files:
copy stuff(approx 100M) to it after apply "flash_eraseall",it seems 
like normally if i delete those seperately, but it corrupted if i 
use "rm -f *.*" ,here is content retrived from klogd(both MTD and
yaffs2 debug infos are turned on):

"page 11014 in gc has no object"
it seem like corrupted when do GC.

"obj -1502975143 ... seq -1513157629 "
does it mean that yaffs tags corrupted?  if so, i have to dig into 
mtd driver?

I am not sure it's an issue about yaffs2 or mtd, any comments will
be welcome!

Thanks!
