I am the lucky owner of a 1201 hardware revision Nokia n800.
it was born on the diseased plains of the young earth, shortly after the famed asteroid crash wiped out the dinosaurs, circa 2006.

Any firmware above RX-34_2007SE_2.2006
fails to install, since it demands a hw revision 1301 or above.
I have tried using --set-hw-revision and --hw-revision to no avail.

Right now I am thinking about unpacking the firmware image and modifying the settings/reqirements to accomodate hw revision 1201.

I'm willing to brick the device in the process, as the battery life and stability of my n800 are abysmal with this firmware.

Any and all advice how to force my n800 to flash with the latest firmware would be greatly appreciated.
Right now I am not finding anything specific online, on these forums, or mameo chat logs, perhaps someone can point me in the right direction.

Right now I get the error when flashing

Found deivce RX-34, hardware revision 1201
NOLO version 1.1.3
Version of sw-release:<no version>
To Flash the bootloader, you have to supply the X-Loader image

and setting the --set-hw-revision does not write it to the device

Thank you!
