I have erased everything not essential to the OS from mine whilst uninstalling NITDroid (cock up on my part) but it certainly didn't boot up like that - I did have the grey background but where text should be there were nothing but boxes, but I was able to flash both Fiasco and eMMC successfully.....

How long does the flashing of the rootFS usually last?

The same thing that happened to me . The best you can do is reflash both eMMC and firmware (in the correct order) and make sure that you flash the lastest eMMC and the lastest firmware (pr 1.3) this work for me =)

Flashing the rootfs takes about 30 - 40 seconds, the longest part being erasing the CMT. You should be able to watch this go up percentage wise within the DOS prompt window on the XP machine.
Writing eMMC is a lot quicker. From what I can recall it doesn't particularly matter which way you flashthe images, just make sure you don't have the -R switch at the end of the first flash as this will reboot the device and that's when it goes tits up.

Does the usb-image in the corner of the N900 disappear normally while flashing?

Has anyone experienced this?
I also tried to flash an older image, but it didn't help.
I noticed two things:
1. that flashing the rootfs takes only 0.1s.
2. With XP, the usb-image in the corner of the N900 disappeares after the flasher says: "Booting into flashing mode, no suitable usb-device found". It doesn't appear any more while flashing.

Now it's working!
1. I flashed the eMMC
2. Then I flashed(tried to) the rootFS with -R at the end. It finnished again in 0.1s.
3. When it started to reboot, i started flashing the rootFS again
It worked! Now I saw the progress and the "Erasing CMT" -stuff.
I did flash the eMMC first every time...
Thanks a lot!
