If you really want to use other mmc device and partition for bootmenu, edit uboot file include/configs/nokia_rx51.h and change what you want in "#define CONFIG_PREBOOT". Then recompile uboot and load it.

Default values are:
Code:
	"setenv mmcnum 1; setenv mmcpart 1; setenv mmctype fat;" \
	"setenv mmcscriptfile bootmenu.scr;" \
mmcnum - 1 - eMMC, 0 - SD card
mmcpart - partition (1-4)
mmctype - filesystem (ext2, ext4 or fat)
mmcscriptfile - signed hush uboot file which will be called

Thanks pali, now works perfectly.
So if it goes well maybe one more: I creat symlink kernel 51 item to /etc/default/bootmenu.item but u-boot still load omap kernel.
My fault I forgot to update bootmenu

My N900 battery has drained and I can't figure out a way to boot it into maemo.
I have u-boot "2012.04"and power kernel51r1 installed.
I can see the boot menu and can access it's console.
But when I select boot entry.
It shows the dots then reboot.
Also, when the charger is connected, the amber led stays on. So, I do think it's charging.

Any trick to get it to boot ?

@starkwiz: Press power button after uboot is loaded. Then connect wallcharger and boot attached kernel (= default nokia). If you did not broke Maemo rootfs system, charging should start.

Other solution is to charger battery in another n900/phone or external charger.

@pali: Thanks for your response. After booting into internal nand which I believe is the original maemo firmware. I can see the amber led blinking instead of it staying just on.
But it restarts after a while still.

Well at least your USB port is working , so go and turn on R&D mode. With some luck you'll be able to boot and fix whatever is broken (did you do anything -- that could have broken your rootfs -- lately?).

If R&D mode doesn't save you, you would need to reflash your rootfs.

Sorry for the not updating here immediately. I got busy with things.
Pressing the power button and booting into attached kernel helped.
This happened again today. and this trick worked.

@starkwiz: I attached stock nokia pr1.3 kernel into uboot binary to solve these problems.
