Can you wrote a little tutorial please, step by step, how to do this and i will add this to PDF instruction.

my instructions are if you know which tweak caused it.

in this example we take that the tweak has modified /usr/share/themes/blanco/meegotouch/meegotouchhome/style/meegotouchhome.css

follow instructions on http://wiki.meego.com/N950/Fixing_MALF_state

follow till step 7
once rootfs is mounted,
open terminal
sudo cp -R /(path to your backed up file)/ /media/{rootfs}/usr/share/themes/blanco/meegotouch/meegotouchhome/style/
once the file is copied umount the directory following step 11 of the wiki.
then reboot and the reboot loop should be gone.

only possible on linux and not windows AFAIK.

We can use the kernel and initrd from this link (it's for N950) ?
I saw, we can, thanks

yup. the kernel and initrd function to get the "dead" n9 to be visible to be mounted. there is no issue with it.

I need ask about some steps (i'm new in linux )

1. We need to download flasher_3.12.1_i386.deb or flasher_3.12.1_amd64.deb and install this on linux PC ?
2. We need to download initrd.img-rescue-2.6.32.20112201-11.2-n950 and vmlinuz-2.6.32.20112201-11.2-adaptation-n950-bootloader and put them to (full path please) ?
3. Before this command:
Code:
sudo flasher --load -k vmlinuz-2.6.32.20112201-11.2-adaptation-n950-bootloader -n initrd.img-rescue-2.6.32.20112201-11.2-n950 --boot
We need go to the flasher directory, like in windows ? Yes or NO ?

Thanks

1. ok first download the flasher for linux based on your linux architecture. i386 is for 32-bit systems and amd64 is for 64-bit systems.
once flasher is dowloaded, double click to install it. there will be no separate program for flasher it will be integrated into the system instead.

2. download those files, in ubuntu they will be downloaded to the Downloads directory.

3. go to the Downloads directory where your files have been downloaded and right-click and select to open terminal here.

4. enter the commands and it will auto-detect the path to files. you don't need to go to flasher directory as linux understands what you mean by the command flasher as it was integrated when you installed it.
