So I followed the steps, powered off, held the 'u' connected to my Linux box, and did the flash

Code:
sudo ./flasher-3.5 -F RX-51_2009SE_20.2010.36-2.002_PR_COMBINED_002_ARM.bin -f -R
The flash completed, and the N900 rebooted. It came up to the screen with the "KITT screen", the 5 dots with the light running between them. It has been in this state for about 45 minutes. Is this normal? Should I flash again? Flash EMMC and then OS? Just wait it out?

Thanks,
--vr
its not normal
u need to reflash i think.

never flash emmc before flashing rootfs.
device should not be rebooted between flashing rootfs and emmc
i.e. -R need to removed from end of the command


Code:
sudo ./flasher-3.5 -F RX-51_2009SE_20.2010.36-2.002_PR_COMBINED_002_ARM.bin -f -R
follow the instructions given in wiki
