Sorry to be a bit thick here, but how do you either get xterminal to open through a uboot command, or get uboot to accept commands that will lead to running flasher. I'm just getting unknown command errors all over the place

phew. Managed to get just the basic kernel back on and it loads fine.
If anyone else ends up here looking for an answer, you need to get flasher on your pc and download PR1.3 image into the same directory where flasher is then run a command prompt, go to flasher directory and type:
flasher-3.5 -F RX-51_2009SE_20.2010.36-2_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin --flash-only=kernel -f -R
That will flash the boot kernel only, allowing you to keep all settings etc and only the boot returns to basic.

PS- gameowar- Make sure your battery has some power in it or it won't go into update mode.
Oops just realised I forgot to mention that you need to plug your phone into the PC, holding the U button before you run that flasher command
EDIT_ Just tried rebooting again and it will let me load nitdroid without having to do anything extra, so it's just the power kernel that needs sorting out on multiboot. That's no biggie, as I only installed it recently and hadn't even played around with it yet except to experiment what it was like at a setting of MAX: 805 instead of 600. It DID seem a nicer experience though, so I will try again soon I am sure.

Look, guys. You generally -never- have to press U!
All you have to do is:
With your n900 OFF and unplugged, run the flasher command.
With the flasher "waiting", plug your n900 into USB. It will automatically boot, then flash. NO U KEY NEEDED.

как мне удалить u-boot? flasher не видит n900, при старте грузится u-boot пишет starting kernel и все, желательно прошить только ядро на стандартное
