Since kernel-power v46, uboot support has been dropped for some reason.
I decided to upload a package that includes uboot support.
Package name: uboot-power
Based on kernel-power v46.
It boots both maemo and MeeGo without any issues.
Usual warnings apply

P.S, unlike the source of uboot-pr13, this one does not contain binaries, I hope uboot-pr13 will be updated to remove the binaries in it.

uboot in kernel-power 45 caused problems with some hardware revisions of N900s, other than revision 2010 I think it was.

AFAIK the power45 and power46 kernels are the same except for 2 things: power 46 dropped uboot support but added BT mouse support.

Not sure about problems (I'm sure you meant 2101 btw), I'm not using the u-boot provided by titan/Matan, this is straight from the u-boot git page with the N900 patches applied.

Hmm. Which means I need to still make my own uboot+power46 image when I figure out how to either get or compile a mkimage binary for my N900 (or crack and do it from a Debian VM, but I like the aesthetic of making the kernel image onboard the N900).

Nevertheless, thank you for providing this. It makes me happy to have the uboot screen back, even if I'm not dual booting regularly - just so that I can have it when I build up the motivation to learn how to partition drives/(other-name-for-all-computer-storage-media) correctly.

Would it be possible to include hid-apple module to next versions of "Enhanced kernel". Let me know if there is some other channel for this enhancement request.

Looks like there are some Apple Bluetooth Keyboards that work without it, but other don't.

http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=41845

I can confirm that mine will connect but don't work. However, after compiling hid-apple.ko for power-kernel v46 and using that, my keyboard finally works with n900.

I'm no expert, but check that the required vmlinuz-??? files exist in the /boot/multiboot directory & that matching .item files exist in the /etc/multiboot.d directory.
