You already got that as in the bin file RX-51_2009SE_3.2010.02-8.002_PR_COMBINED_002_ARM.bin.

In mklivecd project pages you can download a deb ...
Now my question is ... this "deb" allows you to create a livecd which should be booted as a secondary operating system from device Crerar ISO (or another livecd) the primary operating system?
A bit like I did with HDD Regenerator if I remember correctly ..
Or you can directly create the ISO of the primary operating system through the program ?

you can create a ISO of the currently running OS, just like a bootable, installable backup, of your currently running system.
Very usefull before risky operations to safe the last working state of your system.

I haven't seen any program to open a jffs2 filesystem on Windows.

I don't see why you would even need to extract the jffs2 image?

/dev/mtd2 is just a flash chip containing 1's and 0's dd it to your memory card (once you can boot from memory card) and then if need be just flash it back to /dev/mtd2

nice find. I don't know anything about familiar linux for the iPaq.
But as mklivecd is for debian, and maemo is based on debian, it might be easier to use mklivecd.
Or this open flasher thingi...

btw: did you notice abill? I thanked your post :D
