The n900 will only go into update mode if the battery is sufficiently full. IT worked for me by charging it for a bit then, making sure it was off, holding the u key while plugging in the pc connector

Guys, you do know that it's not for fun that on http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/N900/Install/Dual_Boot we write exactly this:

WARNING: This guide is experimental and everything you do with this guide is at your own responsibility and risk

WARNING: DO NOT RELY ON WALL CHARGER, ONLY USB CHARGING FOR 1.1 IMAGES, see meego bug #2260

This is a simplified guide for dual-booting with u-boot on Nokia N900.

You must be using the PR1.3 kernel and nothing else. You will likely end up in a reboot loop if you don't have this otherwise. To check this, in Maemo X-Terminal, type "uname -a" and make sure you see:

Linux Nokia-N900 2.6.28-omap1 #1 PREEMPT Fri Aug 6 11:50:00 EEST 2010 armv7l unknown

and "dpkg -l | grep kernel-modules" should show 2.6.28-20103103+0m5.

If there's guides that doesn't have this warning, blame those people.

So to avoid problems with u-boot on the upgrade of kernel-power we have to be on stock kernel??

Did I have well understood??

Thanks in advance.

Generally:

* Installation of kernel-power -after- uboot-pr13 install will wipe out uboot, as expected
* Installation of kernel-power -and then- install uboot-pr13 WILL cause a reboot loop (You're installing a kernel where the modules doesn't match).

Someone can make a uboot-kernel-power if they want. We're doing the uboot-pr13, matching the officially released PR1.3 kernel.

Here's a guide for people who got "starting kernel" heng with power44.

http://my.svgalib.org/770/n900/u-boot/u-boot-n900.zip

1 - Expand attached archived on SD (must be on third Fat partition)
2 - Start N900 and enter on u-boot interactive console (by booting with open keyboard and pressing any key).
3 - Type mmc init and press enter
4 - Type run loadbootscript and press enter
5 - Type run bootscript and press enter

This should run maemo with stock PR1.3 kernel (included in the zip file).

After booting I suggest downgrading to power43 kernel with the command (as root):

apt-get install kernel-power=2.6.28-maemo43 kernel-power-modules=2.6.28-maemo43 kernel-power-flasher=2.6.28-maemo43

And I request that people will tell me about having this problem, including the HW revision of their device.
