There's a VLC for Maemo available, too. Command line only, but it is sure to work better than VLC in Easy Debian...

Sure it is possible.

Just change setting in /home/user/.chroot file and change the path to the memory card after moving the image file.

All the softwares you have installed will go together. You don't need to reinstall them (unless if you use new a image file).

Note: Don't forget to click on Close Debian first before move the image to avoid problem with mounting.

Some more questions:
Is it still the correct way?
According to qole's response back then, this is not recommended.

On the memory card you can go beyond 2GB by making a separate ext2 partition. I don't have that done myself, because I don't have a memory card (yet), but I have learnt that you should have also some FAT partition on the card for the sake of Maemo.

Yes, works for me in German. You however need to install a hunspell or myspell dictionary for that. I guess you need myspell-pl (didn't see a Polish hunspell dictionary).

I did install it, and it works, but the colors are messed up. The performance varies. I didn't try Qole's latest image though.

maybe this is a stupid question but how to do it? Should I use the app which shows up after installing Easy debian which allows to install extra packages for the image?

Thanks for the answers. I managed to get an ext3 partition in the memory card, to move the image there and to start again easydebian!
Next step I will try to increase the size. Let's hope for the best !

An alternative to having a loop device within the ext3 partition would be to just untar the contents of the image into your ext3 partiiton if you just need it for Easy Debian. Might have an advantage regarding speed. I guess qole would be the one who has more insight here.

Yes, you can install trhough the Synaptic package manager. Alternatively, you can do it from the command line: open the Debian chroot terminal (red swirl icon) and type in
Code:
apt-get update
apt-get install myspell-pl
apt-get clean
See the wiki for more info.

Re: Easy Debian Fremantle Beta Testing
 
it want;s to remove all open office files like writer calc and also gimp and it says that 38 files will be removed and 1 will be installed. If i understand it correct I will have the spell checking but no app in which I can use it.
