Yesterday I got 4GB card for my N800 so I have finally tried it too. I cloned older N800 firmware to mmc and then upgraded flash to latest one and updated bootmenu. Both systems boot now. Also experienced 'keys not working in menu' situation with older firmware. Now I cannot make it in newer one. Let's hope it is gone.

One nasty thing (at least in older firmware) is the 'metalayer-crawler' process which indexes mmc cards after each boot. This slows booting and make device less responsive couple of minutes after each boot (I have ~700MB of MP3 files on first FAT partiton). Maybe this background scanning also causes reboot issue some people reported. I hope it can be disabled somehow and run it only if I really add some new media files to my card.
