I believe my tablet is running OS2008 version RX-34_2008SE_2.2007.50-2_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin that I flashed then put into RD mode. I did the flash a while ago and I am just noticing the boot screen seems to indicate that I am still running OS2007 (or some part of it). When I use the control panel about product button their is an "<unkonwn>" under the words "Nokia N800 Internet Tablet" and also under "Version:". I have searched the forums and I can't seem to find a similar problem, if it is even a problem. Can someone tell me how to tell what firmware I am running? Here is the output from the boot screen that also matches the info in /proc/version and /proc/component_version
Kernel 2.6.21-OMAP 1

That is weird... The kernel is correct for the first OS2008 release AFAICT, but the bootloader is not! My 50-2 has nolo 1.1.7 (hwbuild, whatever it is, and initfs version are the same as yours).
What does "apt-cache policy osso-software-version" say?

My N800 with OS2008 also says this!

In case anyone else need this information I re-flashed my tablet with RX-34_2008SE_2.2007.51-3_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin and now seem to have the correct component version numbers. Here is the output of the various commands to check your version numbers in OS2008 51-3:
cat /proc/version
Linux version 2.6.21-omap1 (root@alcyone) (gcc version 3.4.4 (release) (CodeSourcery ARM 2005q3-2)) #2 Fri Dec 7 11:17:13 EET 2007
cat /proc/component_version
product RX-34
hw-build 1301
nolo 1.1.11
apt-cache policy osso-software-version
osso-software-version:
