Looks like it is from same source, at least according to changelogs, same kernel is in all HE versions and latest OS2006 firmware. Flasher prints
Code:
SW version in image: SU-18_2006SE_3.2006.49-2_PR_MR0
Image 'kernel', size 1268864 bytes
        Version 2.6.16-200648osso1.1
According to debian changelog inside
http://repository.maemo.org/pool/gre.../su-18-kernel/
it is indeed built from osso29 source.

Could you paste full /proc/version string? Maybe the compiler is different? I have similar size to yours when compiled inside 2.2/Gregale SDK (gcc version 3.4.4 (release) (CodeSourcery ARM 2005q3-2)) but I have just compiled it with uclibc toolchain (gcc version 3.4.2 (release) (CodeSourcery ARM Q3D 2004)) which is used for compiling 770 initfs binaries and the size is 1268820 bytes which is pretty near. The binary is here, I have not tested it at all. Also when thinking about it maybe 2.0 SDK could have same older compiler too? EDIT: no, it has same 3.4.4

Still, all my kernels are rock solid on my device so I wonder how different compiler could cause erratic behaviour only on some 770s.
