You can then log into the USB serial terminal, and restore the ramdisk image by hand.

1) Copy the ramdisk-origi.uimg to micro-SD card
2) Put the card into the reader
3) Mount it:
mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /mnt/sd
4) cd /mnt/sd
dd ramdisk-orig.uimg of=/dev/mmcblk2 seek=10240 count=600 bs=512
5) Reboot

Good luck!
I've tried the key combination you said, but my T1 still stopped at the "opening book..." screen when it restarted from a crash (I've previously root it with minimal-root). How can I unroot it now? My PC doesn't recognize the READER, SETTINGS, and SDCARD disks (plugged in the reader).
