I can see your problem.
You have file /boot/multiboot/vmlinuz-2.6.28-10power46, while your .item file entry says
2.6.28.10-power46. Do you see the difference? ;) run commands:

Code:

root

mv /boot/multiboot/vmlinuz-2.6.28-10power46 /boot/multiboot/vmlinuz-2.6.28.10-power46

Note that the kernel file name after vmlinuz- or zImage- must be the same as a directory name in /lib/modules (which already is /lib/modules/2.6.28.10-power46).

Also, you don't need now files:

/boot/multiboot/vmlinuz-2.6.28-10power47
/etc/multiboot.d/01-Maemo-kernel-power-2.6.28.10-power47.item

As they are for new power kernel 47, and you installed old 46. (or you can have them to have also power kernel 47, but you need also /lib/modules directory with modules from package kernel-power-modules in version 47)

Re: [Announce] kernel-power v47

I did a search through this thread and the following doesn't appear to have been asked yet...

Has anyone looking at the source of v0.46 and developing v0.47 found the cause and possibly a remedy for the reboot command not working?

What do you mean "the reboot command not working" ? When I type "sudo reboot" in terminal, N900 reboots...

Lol, strange issue as so many people experience it... my N900 reboots, I don't use this command too often (don't need it), but can't remember even one single time when it would not work... Strange...

Re: [Announce] kernel-power v47

Yes, vi_, that's the thread I was thinking of - it's not just in archive though (http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=71127).

It works sometimes as reboot but mostly it just turns the device off.

Edit:
I can confirm this behaviour. I did reboot, from root because user doesn't have permssion to use the shell scripts. First time worked (surprise), second time and device just turned off.

It's nothing massive on its own but might represent something more important/serious. Seeing as it works some of the time, it's probably a software conflict in the shutdown procedure but I don't know how that works.

Re: [Announce] kernel-power v47

Tired of reading about "wrong temperature" and "multi-boot update not working" over and over again?
Why not collect relevant information in a Sticky Post?
What do you think?

Re: [Announce] kernel-power v47

While on my searching for apps which report temperature in wrong way now, I compiled patched conky-n900, so if you're tired of it showing wrong temperature, you can use version attached to this: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=136 post unless package maintainer and developer releases new version. Time to sleep now, 4:18 in here. Goodnight :)
