Problems mounting Jffs2 filesystem

I am trying to mount the image from the send root option
in the ipak bootloader
I have copied the root image rt.jffs2 which is 33292288 bytes long
to my pc ( running mandrake linux 2.4.8)
and also the task-bootstrap.jffs2 from the familiar feed

I have used the instrustions from the wiki page on loopback

losetup loop0 rt.jffs2

I then insmod the jffs2 module which wants the mtd module
then
 mount -t jffs2 -o loop0 /x

fails with bad superblock

I also tried this with the task bootstrap.jffs2 and got the same error
is there partition info ?? at the start of these filesystems
and if so how do i tweak it ???
