Hi,

I am new to my N810 with OS2008 and the latest over-the-air updates installed (there were just one). I need PPTP support and am new to both the N810 and Linux.
I managed to get the "becomeroot" package installed (Eko One repository, http://gronmayer.com/it/dl.php?id=136).
I followed this thread and links to other and I pretty much got:
kernel-2.2007.50-2-custom.tar.gz and modules-2.2007.50-2-custom.tar.gz (Fanoush kernels, fanoush.wz.cz/maemo/ for OS 2008) then also Fanoush kernel_flasher utility.
I extracted the Kernel (tar zxvf kernel-2.2007.50-2-custom.tar.gz) and got a zImage kernel image.
I installed it with the kernel_flasher (all files on the internal memory, not on the SD card). Then rebooted the device (reboot command).

Now my device does not boot (Nokia screen for 60 seconds and turns down, not sign of booting, and that's it) I think I can fix that re-flashing the OS2008. But still I have questions.

What did I miss to get this poor result out of my kernel flashing?
What do I do with the modules provided? I have extracted them, but do I need to replace the existing modules, or just use the required ones to get PPTP working?
Is there a dummy guide, end to end "how do I install PPTP support on N810 with OS2008"?
What about the the pptp-client-1.7.1 also mentioned in this thread, is it required? Makes your life easier because you don't have to define config files to define a PPTP session?
I apology if my question appears simple, I am willing to write this dummy guide if I sort out how to get my device working and share it with the community.
