INSTRUCTIONS FOR FLASHING FROM A PC
__________________________________________________ __
1: download and install maemo_flasher-3.5
Flasher download: http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/maemo-dev-env-downloads.php


2: download and put the kernel image in the flasher directory on your PC (C:\Program Files\maemo\flasher-3.5\). Make sure you save the file with no extension ie.txt at the end. Just leave it as 'zImage-800mhz'
Kernel image download: http://www.saunalahti.fi/crailt/


3: turn off your device

4: hold the 'u' letter and plug in the usb cable. PC should detect the phone in flasher mode. You should now see a 'USB' icon in the top right of the nokia screen.

5: type this command in Maemo Flasher 3.5:
___________________________________

flasher-3.5 -k <path-to-image> -f -R
___________________________________

example: flasher-3.5 -k zImage-800mhz -f -R


6: your done should take 1 second

__________________________________________________ __

Tip
**Flash your kernel to run this image 'zImage-800mhz' way less chance of your device overheating and causing damage. any higher and you are one crazy bastard

Caution
**Stay away from any files which end in ‘dsp’ unless you know what you are doing.
**Avoid using any kernel which runs the device at more then 900mhz unless you know what you are doing.
**better yet stay away from any overclocking unless you understand the risk of what you are doing.
