Can you please elaborate on what you mean by "can't modify any 
file".

When you "move the file back to YAFFS", what's are you doing
exactly: is this an update (open, seek, write), and overwrite 
(open, truncate, write) eg. cat >file, or an new file (unlink, 
create, write) eg. mv /tmp/file /yaffs-mount/file.  Please 
supply more details.  Are you getting write/read/seek errors,
etc.?  You may find the 'strace' utility useful to see what's
going on when you "fail to modify" the file.

In what state is the file that "can't be modified" ?  Can you
compare it to a copy of what is was, and/or what it should be?
