I have exactly the saeme problem. MDA is PWA10A2, the update is for PWA10A1 and thus doesn't flash. (except for radio which I updated already).
You can use the ROM Image tool from here, it needs a 32MB SD card and a PC SD card reader but it is supposed to be risky.

Anybody tried updating to this ROM on PWA10A2 before we burn our machines? >:)

Get your self a FAQ with a description for a language change. Then patch that file according to that FAQ, do not change the language but the phone type. that's all.

Can I revert to the older ROM (the working ROM) then? The bootloader should work anyway?

I can't see the FAQ though, is it PPC general or MDA/XDA specific?

I patched the ROM (rewrote the desired ID of XDA to match with my MDA :)), flashed and... guess what... it works :)
