"flasher-3.0 --enable-rd-mode --set-rd-flags no-lifeguard-reset"
That will allow your device to fully boot. Then you can have a look at what is crashing (hildon-input-method?) and make changes.
Once you have done the changes, you can disable R&D mode

I upgraded both N8x0 oldies over the weekend. The N800 rebooted successfully after the kernel flash, and shutdown without crashing using the ASUI button, so all seemed well.
Will turn it on again tonight, just to make sure :-)

I have the old packages just successfully installed. Aplication manager has seen the gps-guard package to upgrade and I have done it. Now I have to download the upgraded packages, right? And the kernel image too, right?
Thanks in advance.
The omelette will be done by this afternoon!
P.D.: I've seen 'zImage' package deleted. There is some reason? Is it better not to install it?

And today we have a nice sunny weather for a picnic in the country. I'll bring in the cider

(if for old kernel you mean the community update kernel, that was the first time I installed diablo turbo).
