f.ex == for example. Basically create file of desired size using dd:
  dd if=/dev/zero of=10MBfile bs=10485760 count=1
then associate it with loop device
  losetup -f 10MBfile
make filesystem
  mkfs.ext /dev/loop0 <-- use loop device reported by losetup above

Than you can mount it
  mount /dev/loop0 /mnt/somedir

and put all the files you need/want.

unyaffs takes single argument being name of yaffs img file and unpacks it to
current dir

In the long run this would be better.
You can have a look on CyanogenMod sources as I remember seeing mentions on
using ext filesystem in prebuilt images.
