So what will happen if I just uninstall your package? The flash-and-reboot of your kernel has already happened, will uninstalling the .deb make the system try to flash the Nokia kernel again?

Removing shouldn't reflash it again. I see nothing in the prerm that would do that.
dpkg --remove --force-all diablo-kernel-flasher && apt-get install --reinstall diablo-kernel-flasher

would restore the latest diablo kernel package from nokia. Doing flash-and-reboot again to restore the nokia kernel is your choice. If you don't want to, rm will work ;)

Doh, typing from memory doesn't seem to be doing it for me >.<

diablo-kernel-flasher should be kernel-diablo-flasher

Oh man, now I'm in deep poop.

Crap, that *should* have worked. It must be all this diablo-1 crap, sorry.

I've uploaded the latest proper version from Nokia's servers here:
http://qwerty12.maemobox.org/kernel-...maemo1_all.deb

dpkg -i it and osso-software-version-rx34 should be satisfied. Sorry for the trouble.

Whew, thanks qwerty12.

So now the steps for anyone wanting this fancy kernel (post-Diablo-SSU) are:

1. Start a terminal, gain root
2. Install qwerty12's modified kernel
Code:

dpkg -i kernel-diablo-flasher_2.6.21-200823maemo3_all.modfied.deb
3.
Code:

flash-and-reboot
It will tell you that there's a kernel image waiting for you, do you want to flash it? I answered yes. My tablet did some stuff and then rebooted.
4. Get qwerty12's stock kernel ;)
5. start a terminal, gain root
6.
Code:

dpkg --remove --force-all kernel-diablo-flasher
dpkg -i kernel-diablo-flasher_2.6.21-200829maemo1_all.deb

NEW STEP:
7.
Code:

rm /boot/zImage-diablo-200828

Just a note, for flash-and-reboot, you do not need to be root. Nokia installs a sudoers file which allows flash-and-reboot to be run via sudo and the flash-and-reboot script has a section at the top that will relaunch it using sudo if you are "user".

But I have the feeling I'm going on here as you need to be root to use dpkg for the 5th step as you know :)

But you can shave 1 seconds off by making step 2:
2. Start a terminal

:P :)

Anyway, I'm done with just a simple kernel like this :P. I've been working on this:
op_mode patch, rotation patch, brightness changing patch, 48Mhz mmc, japanese radio patch, musb fix patch, preempt, usb powercheck disabled, OTG whitelist disabled so everything works, menulaus setting voltages messages removed from dmesg, eac mode, play enabled, record disabled messages removed from dmesg.

Except for the preempt, and the eac mode patch, the rest is all patches and work by other people :)

okay, maybe I'm dense or something but I seem not to be able to install these two kernal updates with the above 6 steps...

when I try to install the first one (kernel-diablo-flasher_2.6.21-200823maemo3_all.modfied), app manager says
unable to update kernal-diablo-flasher.
incompatible application package


I've updated to ver 4.2008-30.2 already on a fresh flash - am I missing a step or something???

/me is confused

Re: Why there is lack of interest "Highspeed enabled kernel for the Nokia n800 and n8
 
I had to install it with "dpkg -i kernel-diablo-flasher_2.6.21-200823maemo3_all.modfied.deb"

Re: Why there is lack of interest "Highspeed enabled kernel for the Nokia n800 and n8
 
ah! I got it! Maybe we should update the first post?

but, now that I just installed both of these kernels... what have I installed? seriously :) can someone enlighten me?
