Ok pali sorry but it's still not working... Still stuck at "Starting boot.sh from immc2 (mmcblk0p2 ext3)" but now it doesn't reboot so did my device hang up or did you really made it?

BTW have you tried your script? Is it working on your device? If yes I guess it's my n900's problem

Bootmenu now communicate with HW watchdogs, so while bootmenu is active N900 will not reboot (needed for usb network/mass storage mode).

Yes, I'm using my scripts on my N900 and all works fine.

Well I don't know what's the problem now :/ Do you have any more suggestions? I have managed to use bootmenu few months ago in dual booting meego so I guess I need to do that style again on here. But I need to repartition my EMMC there and dump all files on that partition lol!

Try this:
Connect phone with USB cable to computer and start usb network recovery mode from bootmenu. Login via ssh and run this boot script:

$ modprobe mbcache jbd ext3
$ mkdir /mnt/new_root
$ mount -t ext3 -o noatime,nodiratime,commit=1,data=writeback /dev/mmcblk0p2 /mnt/new_root
$ cp /mnt/new_root/boot.sh /tmp/linuxrc
$ chmod +x /tmp/linuxrc
$ exec /tmp/linuxrc

Ok could you explain it to me how? I'm not yet familiar with USB networking on n900 so I can't do that lol! Also when doing SSH on what IP?

Also I dont see network recovery mode on bootmenu n900

First install openssh server (and optional udhcpd). Then connect USB cable and in bootmenu press SHIFT to enable USB networking. All info is printed on screen.

IP address of device is 192.168.2.15

Weird omg! I can't get to SSH I'm using putty from windows 7 OS to connect but it prompts

---------------------------
PuTTY Fatal Error
---------------------------
Network error: Connection timed out
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------
Although my device already says USB Networking is up with IP 192.168.2.15


I can connect to my remote server so I know port 22 isn't blocked

This USB network has network adapter too with IP address. (not ISP).
For USB adapter on computer, configure static IP addres: 192.168.2.14
