My phone got stuck in a reboot deadloop (stopping eventually w/ a "too many reboots" error) after doing (too many) things with it :

• Installing busybox-power
• Installing bash
• Changing hostname in /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname

I've been looking all over the forums, but every readme, howto or wiki page mentions obsolete links ! I understand that I need two files, main.bin and emmc.bin to flash but I cannot find them anywhere to save my life..! Please help ; what would be wonderful is a step-by-step with working links... I use Debian Linux (but have access to a virtual Windows machine)

Thanks a lot everybody.

EDIT - OK I found the images here now I'm looking for the flasher, can anybody help ? Is this the same binary that I used way back w/ my N900 ?
EDIT2 - Found the flasher here.
EDIT3 - Flashed main.bin, didn’t help :
