I can't explain this, but after many unsuccessful tries at chroot (trying to get it to boot from my internal card), I watched as my N800 booted after I manually selected the internal memory card. When I did, it said at the top of the page: "Booting from immc2"

Note that it said "immc2" and not "mmc2"

So I did chroot again inserting "--set-root-device ask:immc2" and guess what? Now it boots from my internal card just as it did before the Diablo update.

If I'm an idiot, I apologize, but I don't remember seeing immc2 in the wiki or postings. Is this part of the Diablo update?
