Hello guys,

A year and a half ago I was very happy with my N900, then it started to have some issues (camera, reboot loop, lack of 3G band from my operator...)
Then I was forced to change my phone ( to a Lumia, at leas it still Nokia). And put my N900 in my TV table...

One of those days I just found it and I think it will be fun to use it again, but it was dead. It was in a reboot loop and It enter to BackUp Menu if keybord open.

Tried to flash it with the same images I used the last time It failed but it didn't work (last time it worked fine)... it still in a reboot loop after flashing.

Enabled R&D from Flasher but didn't woked, It still looped.

R&D just shows:

no initfs \o/

and then reboot

Also checked checksum for OS images and seems to be ok,

So If anyone have any idea I will be happy to try

Thanks in advance guys!

Update:

EMMC seems to be corrupted. Now in the good side I need to run Gparted to check EMMC and see if can be fixed. In the bad side, I do not have BackUpMenu installed, so I can not access the partition to check it with Gparted...

Looking for a way to access it
