Turned off the device. Found the label under the battery.
As for the 4-digit code, I only see a big 0434 between CE and the ! in circle. Is this what you want to see?
PS I can't boot the device without the charger as the device doesn't wake up on battery alone.
My microsd is a SanDisk 4GB Class2. I made three fat partitions, the 3rd being fat16 with boot flag all done by fdisk on another linux box.
The files should be on a fat partition that is the third partition /dev/sdb3 in Linux if in usb SD card reader. This is how an SD prepared for meego boot is partitioned. You can use another partition, but then you need to run the commands manually.
It is better that the device is not plugged.
If I use another partition, can you please provide the manual commands?
Thanks to another member's tip I got the backlight back (hit some key when uboot loads, enter 'reset'). Now I see the whole output and the correction is in this post.
1 - Expand attached archived on SD (must be on third Fat partition)
2 - Start N900 and enter on u-boot interactive console (by booting with open keyboard and pressing any key).
3 - Type mmc init and press enter
4 - Type run loadbootscript and press enter
5 - Type run bootscript and press enter
This should run maemo with stock PR1.3 kernel (included in the zip file).
After booting I suggest downgrading to power43 kernel with the command (as root):
And I request that people will tell me about having this problem, including the HW revision of their device.
