Wow, a lot of progress since I last came here.
Great work dj_steve!
I'm eager to try this, do you mind sharing the kernel patches, I'm using custom modules so I doubt the zImage is enough, plus I need to apply some other patches to it.

Thanks in advance

E: @ Dany-69, the kernel is on its own partition, type cat /proc/mtd to find out which one. I'd suggest not playing with any of the /dev/mtd* partitions (manually / without using flasher), you may screw up your device, permanently.
Anyways, kernel flashing is safe.

Another way is type sudo gparted and go through the drop box on the top right and find your microSD card (using the capacity) and the drop box should have the sd* of the device. I did this on ubuntu 9.04

i have to use the command dmesg on the pc? i did it on my n900 in x terminal?

disabling r and d will not work - the watchdogs are indeed the reason for it being needed

if we can find out what watchdogs need pettign we may be able to get by without r&d mode
