Why would you want to start with USB connected if not for maintenance mode?
Just start the menuscript manually when you are in telnet/ssh session;
This command will launch the menu and when selection is done, reboot automatically to the selected OS: "/boot/menu/select_and_boot_os.sh"
This command will launch the menu and load up the kernel, but not boot device (so you can tweak the scripts, launch it again, etc...) : "/boot/menu/select_os_animated.sh"
Because to answer mcbook: In my case, I'm trying to recover fro a flat battery, and I keep getting the ubiboot menu instead of the computer recognizing there's something to flash.
Based on one of the things I read about it somewhere, I think I'd be having an easier time with this if I'd ever actually gotten anything besides Harmattan configured correctly before I stopped playing with it last...

But this sounds more like a (flashing) driver problem. You are on Windows, right?
I have one laptop where I need to plug it in several times. And also to the extent that the N9 was not detected also. Plugging it in to another works always.
So what are you using?

1.) Your flasher is not getting access to the USB port
2.) Your device is not in real power-off mode
For problem 1, you need to fix your PC
For problem 2, you might want to try to press and hold the N9 power button for about 30 seconds or until flasher notices that the device is connected when you plug it in.

The scripts assume that all your partitions are mounted under /mnt/1, /mnt/2, /mnt/3, ... etc
When init calls the script, partitions are mounted so. When you are in maintanance console, your partitions are exported via USB, and thus not mounted.
Before calling the scripts, you need to fo the following;
echo "" > /sys/devices/platform/musb_hdrc/gadget/lun0/file
mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /mnt/1
mount /dev/mmcblk0p2 /mnt/2
mount /dev/mmcblk0p3 /mnt/3
mount /dev/mmcblk0p4 /mnt/4
# (and also the rest of partitions, if you have more...)

@Taixo; It seems to be like peterleinchen says, unless the logs from your /var/log/ubiboot.log are older remains of the previous ubiboot version 0.3.3 you had there, you are still running the old ubiboot kernel.
Your ubiboot.conf, however is from the new version, so might it be possible that you have the nef conf, new CPIO but flashing has failed so you are still running with the old ubiboot kernel.
If that was the case, it sure would cause problems like these.
Edit: But I can only boot Harmattan. If I try to boot Android, Nemo or Firefox OS, the screen just goes black and stays that way.
