After I flashed the beta my two SD cards were seen as corrupted/unformatted even though I've used them in OS2007 and the cards are seen OK in WinXP. I made backups, reformatted them to FAT32 and copied files back. OS2008 then sees the cards but only until I run a prog (I tried maemo-mapper) or try to reboot. The cards then become "corrupted" again. Switching the N800 off also hangs, I had to remove the battery a few times. Granted, my SD cards (1G and 4G) are not mainstream brands and sometimes take some time before being picked up in WinXP but they worked fine in OS2007.

Now I am back on OS2007 hoping that the final version will not behave like this. Writing this from my Eee...
