Hello!

I am currently messing around with the mtd drivers on the N800 and need to boot it with a custom-made kernel. In order to test that I could actually boot at all with a custom-made kernel I downloaded the kernel source for diablo_2.6.21 and compiled it with the default settings. Compilation works fine, but no matter what I do, I cannot make the tablet boot from the new kernel.

This is what I have done:
1. Downloaded kernel source
2. sb2 make nokia_2420_defconfig (no errors)
3. sb2 make zImage (no errors)
4. Flashed with 'sudo ./flasher-3.0 -f -R -k zImage' (no errors)

When the tablet reboots after flashing, it gets as far as the splash screen and then shuts down.

What am I doing wrong? Is there any way to get hold of the bootlog to see what is failing?
Best regards,
