In theory, yes. You -will- have to manually install/reinstall the power-kernel again though.

In reality, it depends on the device. 50% of N900s work fine, 50% don't, and you have to reflash to PR1.2 and do it from scratch. Thats what this new version is all about.


In other news, I did the same thing as Dany, and got the same result. I was able to somewhat restore my stuff by flashing to PR1.2, and then using this slightly modified version to restore my tar files:

All my programs came back, as did locations on the desktop. Unfortunately, all the new program icons are missing as are my themes & backgrounds.
It -does- work though, so...

I'm going to have to do some more research, and in the meantime implement the old dd rootfs image with the new version - at least that worked for booting. Not sure why the tar images don't though...
