Pull the battery and let it rest for some second, than insert the battery and reboot.

Do you have multiboot or backup-menu or bootmenu-n900 installed, then try to start with keyboard switched out. If this is not working for you try to just flash the kernel http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_t...a_FIASCO_image

Good luck

Does it start just by putting the battery in? If not, try to prepare the phone by loading the battery. Also prepare the flasher utility and the fiasco image to be ready to flash the kernel only. The flasher utility could be started before and just waits for the phone, switched off, to be connected.

Any Debian or Ubuntu Live-CD should do, just keep the flasher utility .deb and the fiasco image on a place with easy access to them.
