    Best way/place to mount a usbstick at /jffs

    Okay, found out why that happens from the source code: It uses run_custom_script() to launch init-start in the background, and continues with initialization in parallel. That's contrary to what the wiki suggests, which is that init-start runs BEFORE most other stuff. Simply not true though...
