Well, regarding the fact that the Chinook boot loader seems too old and OS2008HE is based on Chinook, I suppose there is no "latest firmware" available for 770 which can run the big kernel.
I saw that Solca updated the debugging kernel for 770. Unfortunately this version doesn't work too. This time the Nokia logo fades to white screen and that's it After 20-30 seconds the device shuts down.
I spoke too soon - there's something else - after it fades to white and after a while, a faint blue line appears in the middle of the screen and seems like it is moving very slowly to the left. Then right before the device shuts down the blue line disappears... The line looks like the Nokia logo is compressed to one pixel row with a noise effect

New kernels based on 2.6.28-rc8, the N770 is 1.3MB so I think it should not bother the Chinook bootloader.
Update: new filesystem with enhancements
As a workaroung enable R&D to prevent turn off crash.
RC8 is worse than RC7. On startup, three errors occur (media messaging and acore). Then, WiFi does not even turn on, browser just crashes, feels slower, bah....
I wonder what the problem is...
Also, how do you transfer files to the device's SD card? It does not show up as a drive when plugged in.
Edit: Off topic, but in the Linux flasher, when I try to flash the stock kernel back, I get a "usb bulk write" resource unavailable or something like that. This means I have to do a full reflash from windows to restore the device. Very annoying to say the least. Is there a fix for this?
I also found an interesting problem, it does not boot with the USB plugged in sometimes.
After 20-30 seconds the device shuts down.
