ohhhh man!!! *patting self on back*
i couldnt get into connection mode (U+plug) because i put my device in r&d mode and it would auto start when it got power.
i had this fried battery, that would only allow you to pretty much just boot a phone then die!
i thought that it would only take litteraly about .5 seconds to flash the kernel....
so i opened up flasher
entered the code to flash only the kernel
hit enter, it was waiting for a phone.
i put the broken battery in the device, held the u and plugged in the cable. waited for it to get enough juice to start a load...then...it happened....it had just connected and the magic words appeared... "flashing kernel ..... done"
i put in the good battery and it booted fine!

Guys I know that probably u are pissed because every single time somebody comes here and ask about it.... I'm totally new on that, I've tried everything with the flasher 3.5 but i can't even pass the first step... it says -f not recognized... I know i'm doing something wrong... really dumb in commands.... any good soul willing run a version of the explanation for dummies (me) to help me with that... my e-mail is lourhance@globo.com

2.6.28.10power40
the upgrade to kernel power removes that and multiboot can't boot.
In my case, the multiboot option 0 which should do a stock kernel has also stopped working, so I suspect I need to reflash my rootfs.
However, if people have other ideas, let me know.
All people went in boot problems had multiboot installed??
Thanks in advance.

Nope I had boot problems without ever having installed multiboot.
I installed v44 yesterday and all went well.
Today I rebooted and was caught in uboot. Penguin showed and kernel didn't load.

I will stay away for the upgrade by the time...
I'm happyly living on power37 without any problems.
I just would to upgrade but I'm not sure to know how to solve any mess with that.

code:
root
apt-get install kernel-power-bootimg kernel-power-modules
then
apt-get install --reinstall multiboot-kernel-power
and
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
then reboot you see 2.6.28.10power44 show up on multiboot
it work for me
