any hints what to do now?

I updated package u-boot-tools. Try download and install again.

Now the command went ok but when I boot with the keyboard opened and pick up kernel power I get a boot menu and when I pick up kernel power again I get Booting from (mtdblock4 jffs2)... and white screen and nothing happens.

Fanoush bootmenu does not support booting other kernels. I published new version of Fanoush bootmenu which ignore kernel entries. See thread: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=74720

Now I found one other problem in this u-boot version: U-Boot RX51 board code does not tell correct RAM size. I will build new version.

U-boot from first post. I installed tools, then flasher and then extracted kernel from tar.gz.... u-boot-update-bootmenu and then rebooted... Since then reboot loop and a non working device

J4ZZ, flash defualt kernel. If you are using kernel power, make sure that also default nokia kernel is installed. If you have fanoush bootmenu, update it to new version.

Flashed default kernel. But I don't get what you mean by having both (default and power kernel) installed.

Anyway, flashing default kernel didn't help... I'm still reboot looping.

New version again :-) Now SW cursor is working. Also patches (without bootmenu) was sent to u-boot mailinglist, so its time to see nokia 900 support in upstream u-boot.
