You must be using pretty old code. yaffs2ram support got removed a few months 
back.

I suggest you read http://www.aleph1.co.uk/pipermail/yaffs/2005q3/001504.html

and see how to do this with nandsim.

That is not enough to make a real mtd device.

There are two things you are doing wrong:

1) If you use yaffs2ram or yaffsram file system then yaffs does not use a 
block device. It uses its own internal RAM. You need to mount it as follows:

# mount -t yaffs2ram none /mnt/nand

2) If you want to mount yaffs with an mtd device then you must use the block 
version of the mtd driver called /dev/mtdblockn and you must use the version 
of the file system that supports an mtd block device (yaffs or yaffs2):

# mount -t yaffs2 /dev/mtdblock0 /mnt/nand

That does not change the internal stuff. mtdblock0 is rally a fake block 
driver and just changing the attributes will not change the internal 
associations.
