The latest incidence with F11-XO1/os2 is that will not get to the Home screen but instead
will stay in a white and then black screen. I can get a console and everything seems to
work but startx tells me that X is running in another terminal. Through repetitive reboots
stays the same.
It's probably some file corruption and I'll reinstall, but just in case is
something systemic I got var/log/messages and x.org.log attached.

Probably the X client programs not starting.  Is there an X running in
another terminal?  Check the process list.  Check for children processes
of X.

Reviewed, nothing unusual in them given the symptom.

The only thing I can think of that might have generated file corruption(?) and the
consecutive X problem is that I did mount (and unmount) the NAND while booted in Ubuntu
from the SDcard. 
Has anyone used the XO booting from the SD card with os2 containing NAND mounted? 
With os767/802 the file system was not really accessible when booting from the card (only
the home directory) but with os2 everything is accessible. Given that you mount it as sudo
all kind of things can happen...
