Seriously: do not try this. I was lucky that I had reasonable battery charge. Messing with libc6 made even charging impossible. Reflashing was another great story with vista spewing 'ERROR: Createfile error = 5' without end, thank dice I have dualboot and flasher in ubuntu worked flawlessly, yet again. Now onto .50 kernel...

And even newer news: after trying the above steps on pre50 kernel, FATAL disappears, now the problem seems: error while loading shared libraries: libpcre.so.3 cannot open...
Seems like our latest kernel is enough (to an extent at least)

Seems latest (experimental even) libglib and libc6 (and libpcre) run well on Ubuntu 12.04 (precise) on N900. For this kernel 2.6.35 is needed though. Does anybody know how to flash this thing onto Fremantle? I will probably get to it, but will take weeks of reading of how it is done, which means months realtime for me. If anyone has a quickie instructions and it by any chance works we could save quite a lot of time. I can crash test possible solutions, flashing takes a few minutes. Digging properly into kernel stuff is a huge task, please share your insights.

Pali said on maemo irc that /proc/bootreason needs to be added to 2.6.35 to get Maemo 5 to boot it.

Not on my desktop machine, cba to check it in the logs.

Yes, that would be it.

SIDE NOTE: does a kernel have to be built with the corresponding system binutils to actually boot?

Not much experience in cross-compiling Linux kernels, is all.

Most likely yes(?). Easy to test though, post .28 version built on newer binutils, I'll test it, if it runs - NO, if it fails - YES. Not 100% sure answer, but in case of running, quite likely (if you can also build it on older than .28 chain would be more convincing if answers don't change)

Have you seen this post related to an updated version of GLib?, might be useful for you.
