If you can get into the D+B rescue mode then you have to mount the "normal" partitions before you can do any work on them. D+B mode gets you to the hidden filesystem on mtdblock1 (or possible mtdblock0). The normal partions are mtdblock2 (root) and mtdblock3) home - at least that is true for the C760 and C1000 zaurus.

My C3000 is back thanks to the information above! Many thanks Stu!
All I had to do was to enter into Linux using the D+B key combination and then execute the commands that are listed at the end of this message.
When rebooting there was one or two error messages (too fast to be read) but then the Qtopia environment started fine.
However the On/Off button is still not working I intend to upgrade to the Sharp 1.1 NAND and see if it works.
Thanks for all the help!
