Did you try to follow the HOWTO on flashing? http://www.maemo.org/platform/docs/howtos/howto_use_flasher_rootfs.html For the software image you just have to change the parameter used to -F like you allready did. It should work on Fedora Core 4. The steps you have to take before Flashing should be -Be root on your PC -Turn off the Nokia 770 -Connect the USB cable After these you can start the flasher from the commandline. Hope this helps.
