Installed successfully ... booted up and asked me to confirm date and regional settings, shortly after came up with the accounts screens which I swiped away ... it's now been loading for 5 minutes. Is this normal, or was swiping away the accounts screen a grave error?

Fine now that I turned it off and then indulged its want for me to sign into an account. I assume this may be a bug (infinite boot cycle if you don't).

2. Then you will need to get the firmware image for your device, I used NaviFirm from http://www.symbian-toys.com/navifirm.aspx
Ensure you get the correct firmware!
3. Run Harmattan Flasher and type:
To flash ONLY rootFS:
flasher -F FIRMWAREIMAGE.bin -f
or
To flash root and EMMC use this command:
Flasher -f -F rootFS.bin -F EMMC.bin -R
4. Turn off N9 and plug into computer. Hold off button until the flasher detects the boot loader and starts flashing. (NB: May take several attempts at holding power button)
(5.) For Windows users, you may have to open the installing device drivers window once N9 is plugged in and "skip Windows driver Lookup".

Another more detailed version: http://forum.meego.com/showpost.php?...9&postcount=41
To flash ONLY rootFS:
flasher -F FIRMWAREIMAGE.bin -f
or
To flash root and EMMC use this command:
Flasher -f -F rootFS.bin -F EMMC.bin -R
where did the above file come from ? i understand we only have two files 1.firmwareimage.bin and 2.emmc.bin .. so what is this rootfs.bin? is it the same file i.e firmwareimage.bin ?

1) if your phone has a region code that does not have PR1.1 available yet (eg branded firmware) you can flash another region code's PR1.1 firmware onto your phone such that you can have it sooner
2) if you bricked (ie screwed) your phone you can restore it by flashing
2) if you bricked (ie screwed) your phone you can restore it by flashing

WinFlasher link broken. Anyone having success?
if you add "flasher" (no quotes) at the beginning before the -F it should run.
