Yes, as a normal directory on the host. In my case:

/home/leon/sandbox/wrap/voyage-0.2pre4/

I just hack away into this directory on the host.

Remove unnecessary stuff, compile packages from scratch with minimal 
dependencies. Squashfs with LZMA compression. Linux kernel with LZMA 
deflator code. linux-tiny patches. linux celf patches.

JFFS2 is senseless on CF media, it is designed for directly addressable 
Flash memory only, NOT through a flash controller.
