and why should we flash the eMMC (in what situation) or the other one (firmware) ?

sorry..just had my n900..appreciate your help..

flashing the eMMC is totally wiping out all items or apps from your n900 restoring to factory defaults then the firmware flash for firware updating or resetting

There is: Vanilla version of the eMMC content for Nokia N900, Maemo 5, Second Maemo 5 and Latest Maemo 5.
Nothing with FIASCO

I want restoring to factory defaults and have the latest firmware. But I don't understand the FIASCO step, because there is no file with FIASCO thing...

the fiasco thing is the image firmware itself example is this

RX-51_2009SE_2.2009.51-1_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin, from the tablets site you can choose which to download global or U.S. variant or UK

Okay. I am from germany. So I choose the Global FW.
When FIASCO is the Firmware I want to have. I would make these steps:
# Fully charge the battery (IMPORTANT!!)
# Install Flasher for your OS (Linux, Mac OS X or MS Windows)
than...
connect to PC, holding u
start cmd

Code:

flasher-3.5.exe -F RX-51_2009SE_3.2010.02-8_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin -f

and than

Code:

flasher-3.5.exe -F RX-51_2009SE_1.2009.41-1.VANILLA_PR_EMMC_MR0_ARM.bin -f -R

and I am done. Am I right? ^^
