Under the hood, most (??all??) of the DOC chips are NAND and could be used to
run JFFS2 or YAFFS. Many people do use JFFS2 with some DOC devices (I don't
know about the G3), I don't know about people using YAFFS though, but it is
certainly possible.

MSys push TrueFFS hard because that is their big value added (that's why DOC
is so expensiver per-byte).
