I had exactly the same problem yesterday. (The same reflash, install
only xterm and ssh, apt-get upgrade --> continuos reboot cycle.)

The first reboot happened when upgrading maemo-launcher. Since my device
was usable for a few seconds after starting X, I was able to rename
/etc/init.d/minireboot. That way the Nokia stayed awake and was
accessible via WLAN/ssh even after the screen went dead. But I didn't
find the error...  


Cheers,
Michael
