+ Creates a system produced by Morph build with a jffs2 filesystem and then
+ writes to an image. To use this extension, the host system must have access
+ to mkfs.jffs2 which is provided in the mtd-utilities.morph stratum.
+
+ Parameters:
+
+ * location: the pathname of the disk image to be created/upgraded, or the
+ path to the physical device.
+
+ * ERASE_BLOCK: the erase block size of the target system, which can be
+ found in '/sys/class/mtd/mtdx/erasesize'
