[[edit: removed flashing-kernel comment as the one reporting it also reports he can't flash 
stock firmware now, and it's unclear if this method providing a fiasco image for whatever 
reasons is the right one.

instead, I provide this quote now:
[2011-12-28 01:29:17] <pawky> javispedro: then what was your flasher line that made it all 
work? I didnt succeed with all the ones I could find or think of..
[2011-12-28 01:33:23] <javispedro> pawky: exactly as I have always done, -k <kernelfile> -f -b

In Expression: 
-l : load kernel to RAM
-f : flash kernel
