I am restoring a backup config along with jffs settings that I backed up through the GUI. The settings restore fine, but the jffs says "Setting File upload fail. It may result from incorrect Setting File or error transmission. Please check the validation of Setting File and try again."

JFFS is enabled, and I tried formatting. Also reinitialized the router back to defaults.

Is there something else that needs done to restore a jffs backup? I looked in the wiki and it suggests using a utility, but I assume it should work through the GUI restore function. I can open the tar file and look at the files with no problems.
