@garp
Is this full output?
Then you are missing the preinit_harmattan file/link.
Furthermore your preinit is just a link to init (an executable). It should be a shell script. So something went awry.
permissions should be -rwxr-xr-x
Kernel will not start this way (idk if loading via kexec also fails already at this stage).
What you need for sure is the original preinit and the preinit_harmattan from juiceme (other repository preinits.tar.gz)).

From where you got also the kernel and cpio, but other folder
http://www.swagman.org/juice/ubiboot/other/
preinits.tar

Load to device and untar to rootfs
tar -xvf preinits.tar -C /

Yeah thought so have just tried with this code via ssh with preinits.tar in device MYDocs but message can't find directory etc?

garp@garp-Lenovo-B590:~$ sudo su
[sudo] password for garp:
root@garp-Lenovo-B590:/home/garp# ssh -i my_n9_identity root@192.168.2.15
************************************************** ******
* Welcome to RM-696 ubiboot-02 maintanance console *
************************************************** ******

Enter passphrase for key 'my_n9_identity':
~ # tar -xvf preinits.tar -C /
tar: can't open 'preinits.tar': No such file or directory
~ #

Of course.
As MyDocs is not mounted and preinits.tar not in that directory.
You could mount MyDocs (see commands in my post about device backup) or more easy copy it directly to '/'.

But MyDocs is mounted and also the 3 other partitions both looking to Home map and Nautilus is'n it enough?

Just doing this:"Once the device reboots, keep the USB cable plugged in to enter “maintenance mode”. You will notice that the File Manager of your Linux Distribution will open and will mount/show all the partitions:"
http://wiki.maemo.org/Ubiboot#Moving...g_Filebox_Root

By the way I have also unpacked preinits.tar to rootfs '/' by archive isn't it enough?

Just doing this

Move the file from MyDocs to '/' (rootfs, p2) from PC and try again. [You also use scp when in ssh session.]

So I had ubiboot running for a while, an older version that I installed in July.
I tried to update ubiboot to the latest version using the installation instructions here (basically flashing ubiboot kernel, copying over cpio etc and extracting preinits.tar. Now whenever I try to boot, no matter what I select (or even if I select nothing), I get the same issue as Garp:
Code:
Boot OS/kernel selection failed!
Please run a maintanance boot
I can still access the filesystem if I connect to USB. Any ideas? Also, where is the log file stored?
