Didn't work out here. I was optimistic because the previous mini-upgrade worked.

At first it appeared to have worked, as it went through the motions and then rebooted. It was suspiciously fast though, from what I'm familiar with from normal Debian upgrades with that amount of download. But it looked OK, until I tried to connect to wi-fi. It associated to the AP but never finished (never timed out), didn't go through the DHCP phase.

I switched to 3G, which worked, and visited the app manager again. Pressed update. It again showed a Maemo 5 upgrade, this time a bit smaller. I hit it. It went through the motions again, rebooted.

I visited the app manager again, it _still_ showed the Maemo 5 update. This time only 21KB though. When I hit it it told me I would have to flash. And sure enough, shortly after the device complained about read-only filesystems, and 'dmesg' showed ubifs errors. And then it died.

Now I'm stuck because tablets-dev.nokia.com is down. I shouldn't have been that optimistic, the right way would have been to get hold of the firmware image and flasher in advance, to be prepared for the worst, before attempting the app manager upgrade. Argh.
