flashed initfs and kernel, using fanoush's great scripts,

booting from mmc, thanks thanks

now to test if it actually fixed anything...


was there any word on what actual problem was? varying power supplied to SD slots??

Indeed, I'm quite interested to read the gory details of this problem! Until then I'll run the new kernel and see what happens... ;)

I've also raised bug #2062 asking Nokia to add support to the kernel so that memory card characteristics are output to dmesg/syslog. :) It's a minor enhancement, but quite handy all the same.

No problems so far running latest with 8Gb Class6 SDHC Transcend card.

Only problems noted are that a few repositories aren't getting updated (incompatability taggy thing?) Red pill mode seems to bring them back to life mind.

My bad.

the microb repository seems to be up the swannie.

Any ideas on how to get microb to install when the repos won't appear?

Not to mention that restoring a previous backup on Skype firmware will screw up *lots* of thing on your beloved N800 (sometimes the wallpaper won't redraw, the first time you boot up the home screen is all messed up etc.)

Well, I'm having problems too with the repositories, I cannot install the microb engine (well, actually I can, whan I cannot install is the eal component, anyway the microb engine even if installed and selected isn't working, I always get opera), I cannot install python, and I still see many of the system package as upgradeable (which I won't do, since I tried it before and I had to reflash since the tablet would stay with the initial nokia screen).

Well I have installed this update twice tonight, and I am going back. All I get on the update is a cyclic shut down that requires me to remove the battery to restart the N800

We got response from Quim, flashing kernel shoul be enough so those who don't wan't to reinstall may just flash kernel (see kernel link posted by Milhouse above, if you can't use Nokia linux flasher you may flash it directly from device).
