[maemo-developers] 0xFFFF: GPL-licensed flasher for n770 and n800

[From: pancake]

The past week I released a gpl-licensed flasher for both Nokia Internet Tablets.

On this first release, the flasher can:

 - get some information of the device (nolo version, boot device, etc..)
 - (un)set the usb host mode
 - (un)set the R&D mode
 - extract the firmware pieces from the device
 - flash separately firmware pieces
 - identify firmware pieces
 - reboot the mother board

The homepage of the project is:

I have recorded a termcast video as a demonstration of its usage:

I'm planning to implement a GTK+ frontend for flashing and backuping the device
in a user-friendly way.

Feedback is welcome and feel free to join the mailing list:

Here is a list of tips for people working on flashers and bootloaders on this platform:
