Please help!!!
Were u not informed that its a risky install? Why did you install if you don't know what the software is going to do.

Read the Wiki for flashing the firmware.

Reflash the kernel with a normal kernel image (either stock or power) without uboot.

Looks like you did not type in "run noloboot" fast enough. You get about 10seconds before the device shutdown.

If you don't know what you're doing then this is what you'd get from installing things that had a big "WARNING" written beside it.

Yeap 10 secs so quick but, I did try to type run noloboot, Starting kernel.... then..nothing happens.......

I managed to run MeeGo only.... I cannot boot back to the old system. What should I do to get back the old maemo 5? I did remove the SD and run noloboot....and again... Starting kernel...... nothing happens....

Thanks a lot for helping me....btw any chances to speed up Meego? Mine is very very slow....Is it because of using SD card?

I have rebuild u-boot (Matan's version) from source.

Compiling process (native SDK on N900) has gone well, no errors only some warnings.

Unfortunately the u-boot's image obtained doesn't works on N900.

If I flash it (with attached power kernel) I obtain a corrupted screen during boot and some seconds after N900 power off (no Maemo's boot)

Why?
Where is the error during image build process ?

Hello, I builded new U-Boot based on master U-Boot git tree from 26.08.2011 with new ali's patches. I implemented on screen BootMenu to U-Boot (it looks like Fanoush BootMenu script) which is included too.

Hi pali! I saw while searching the net some time ago that you posted a patch for uboot to allow it to boot through EMMC + support for bootmenu. Is that patch included on your u-boot? Or is this just a bootmenu + uboot. Would love the EMMC part
