I bricked my maemo setup several times. Often the underlying problem would have been trivial to fix, if i had a way to access the root fs. Patching bootmenu enables us to boot a minimal system with just usb network and sshd enabled. sshd will still be using settings from the root fs.


=== Prerequisites ===
* [http://metalab.at/wiki/Hack-A-N900/First_Steps First Steps]
== Install bootmenu ==
Login via ssh to your n900 and:
<pre>
# Get the bootmenu package package:
wget http://www.daimi.au.dk/~cvm/bootmenu_1.6_armel.deb
# Install bootmenu package
dpkg -i bootmenu_1.6_armel.deb
# Install bootmenu script
install_bootmenu
</pre>
Patch bootmenu.sh to fix key bindings and enable usb recovery mode
<pre>
cd /
wget http://metalab.at/wiki/images/4/40/Bootmenu_n900usbrecov.patch
patch -p0 < Bootmenu_n900usbrecov.patch
</pre>
If you like you can edit /bootmenu.conf and adjust the ip address the usb interface will start with in recovery mode:
<pre>
# IP address for USB networking
USB_IP=192.168.2.15
</pre>
== Boot into recovery mode ==
Reboot the device with the keyboard slide out(!).
When the boot menu appears you can either select a boot entry or press "CTRL" to boot usb recovery mode.
