N900 flashing problems.
 

I have tried to flash only parts of fiasco image (for testing). And I am not sure if it is going the right way. On the picture which I attached to this post you can see a messages for example:
"sending kernel image<1705 kB> ...
100% <1705 of 0 kB, avg. 1705 kB/s"

I wonder if value 0 KB in the text above is normal or not. In other words - was flashing really done?

Re: N900 flashing problems.
 

If you've got the prompt back without any error you don't have motive to believe that something went wrong.

Re: N900 flashing problems.
 

Ok, but I have been seeing many screens from flashing n900 and sometimes it is 0 kB, sometimes not. Can anybody explain it ?

Re: N900 flashing problems.
 

Maybe somebody know how to check if flashing is really done. And other question - how to temporarily power up my N900 using fiasco image.

Re: N900 flashing problems.
 

I would like to check if my NOLO is OK. Could anybody tell me how to obtain (in Windows XP) syslog described in this link: http://wiki.maemo.org/User:Joerg_rw/...og_of_USB_enum ? And how to find on which stage problems with booting are starting.

Re: N900 flashing problems.
 

Man up, use linux, (If you do not want to install it, use a Live-CD) and compare the output to Joerg's from the wiki.
Since the N900's Maemo OS id Debian Linux based, you should make yourself familiar with such a system. May be you even make one step further and drop that MS stuff for good... :eek: :rolleyes: :D

Re: N900 flashing problems.
 

N900 flasher have some problems with Windows XP SP2 or later. try it again with SP3 or windows 7 if you dont want to try Linux.

Re: N900 flashing problems.
 

I have SP3 installed already. Besides, I am able to load rescueOS by NIN101 using Windows XP, so this way of flashing probably works. I only wonder on which stage of booting (NOLO or later) my N900 stops.

Re: N900 flashing problems.
 

How to do it? I know how to use Live-CD, but how to get output similiar to Joerg's.

Re: N900 flashing problems.
 

Attach N900 to the computer and then start some terminal and use command
It shows kernel logs (starting from boot). Last rows are the latest. Scrolling up will show older entries.

If you specially want timestamps and hostname, check content of file /var/log/kern.log
