I am not seeing /jffs mounted and the scripts directory is not created in it after boot when selecting enable jffs and format it on next boot. An attempt to create a directory inside /jffs reports error that it is on a read-only filesystem. Looks like the nvram vars are being set OK by the gui before the reboot.

This is using a local build for rt-56u from git HEAD on Sat. evening:

Updated documentation

Just did a pull and see some reverts regarding ARM. Maybe I should have pulled sooner. Not sure if those changes could cause this problem. Otherwise, everything seems to be working OK.

Also, don't see a jffs or jffs2 under /dev either. Not sure if it should appear there.

Don't have an RT-AC56U in front of me; but you need to check the 'erase' or is it the 'format' command underneath when you enable it - then, on the first reboot it creates it and the second reboot it enables it.

Hope I'm remembering this correctly for you.
 
I think I rebooted at least twice but each time I may have set the erase/format jffs selection on (as well as the enable jffs). I will try again this evening. Thanks!

i had the same, autofill was filling in a password firled when it shouldn't so it threw an error each time.
 
Yes, that was the problem. One more boot w/o the jffs format selection was needed.
