how do you do tat?? please help....

I guess overclocking the lil N900 proved to be a popular thing to do.

Enable Extras-Testing in the App Manager and you can install kernel-power42 click-click.

can you give us a little more info here? Id love to copy what you did but i/we might need a little guidance to get there, ive updated to 42 and run the multiboot --reinstall but from what you say more actionsa re needed to get this boot option going....if you could be so kind...

getting the "Can't flash kernel, required files not found
guru meditation #00000025, 62017712" issue

not wanting to cross post but i listed what i did step by step here http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...669#post868669

Edit: (fixed)
as pointed out below:

Code:
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
all fixed and booting, repoting right with kernel-config show

embarasingly simple i guess the new flasher wasnt there to be run - lots of new kernel power based bits and bobs came down thankyou! . . .sorry

massive thanks to titan for updating it to include the pr1.3 updates

1) Download kernel-power_2.6.28-maemo42_armel.deb from the repository.
2) Extract the fiasco image (I used 7-zip in windows)
3) Extract the kernel from the fiasco image with the flasher (In windows, flasher-3.5.exe -F name_of_file.fiasco -u)
4) Renamed the resulting zImage file to vmlinuz-2.6.28.10power42
5) Copy this file to /boot/multiboot
6) Copied /etc/multiboot.d/01-Maemo-kernel-power40 to 02-Maemo-kernel-power42
7) Edited the new file to point to the new kernel
8) Reboot.
