My N900 was borked last night through relying on BackupMenu.

I have about 5 backups and went to restore the original in order to try and isolate a battery drain problem I have.

I selected both RootFS and OptFS (both tar'd) but I did not see RootFS installed. OptFS took about 8 mins.

Through BackupMenu's reset, N900 went into boot loop. Upon normal reset, blue indicator light stays on, doesn't get past Nokia logo, dies after a time out.

BackupMenu still works slightly. The screen doesn't update properly in the boot menu but I can get to the main BackupMenu menu after a couple of file not found errors. After about 10s, the N900 switches off.
I think I've tried all the options anyway. Restoring says "Cannot mount the eMMC". FSCK can't copy the files needed.

USB is loose but I thought I'd ask if anyone had any ideas before trying to solder things smaller than pinheads...
