Kubrick will flash it the right way.

@txhy777: when you flashed the "wrong kernel", you wrote over parts of the root file system, too (because it was so large). So you need to flash the right kernel to the kernel place, and the right root file system to the root file system place.

Use Kubrick, it will do the right thing(TM).
