JFFS any erase sector?

Hello!

I have been trying to get a grip of JFFS (not JFFS2). Is there any documentation out there that tells you how to organize your flash re. partitioning?
Is there a need for any erasesector that GC might need or can I just allocate 2MB-64kB for use by the filesystem. The -64kB is for the small sectors that I don't know if I can use. The example above is for a 2MB AMD flash.
For now I am using the "old" JFFS, i.e not using any MTD, on uClinux for ARM7TDMI.
I will migrate to the one used with MTD any day now but it would be nice to know what is happening.

Please, anyone??

Regards,
/Arne Jonsson
