Ah ok. I understood that part. It just sounded like there was something else that should be backed up or renamed possibly before I did that. I will put it back into r&d mode and try it out. thanks!

hi guys, i have 2 questions about this.

1. lets say i installed another os like ubuntu and i dont want to keep my maemo but a week later, i want my maemo back, how do i get it back?

2. is this (or any other) OS independent from this stupid rootfs thing? or do they all have that restriction?

I used power kernel v40...have you copied tsc2005.ko in /opt on Ubuntu rootfs?

Ps: what does it mean

Has anyone got this working with MultiBoot, yet?
I tried to get this running when it first came out, with a failure....
Can anyone make an auto installer (nitdroid style) for this? I would love this running on my N900!

Edit:
can someone help?

visudo: no editor found (editor path = /bin/vi)

I have VIM/VI installed. Any clues how to fix this?
I'm not sure on how to do the deep down linux commands....

I got Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick (ARM release) to boot, accidentally, by using the NITDroid menu option in multiboot and the wrong microSD card. However, neither the mouse nor the keyboard work. Anyone have any pointers?

maybe use the drivers and inits from the 9.10 release?

Which image have you used? This could be very interesting for Easy Debian/Chroot...

I used the Texas Instruments OMAP3 preinstalled netbook image from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-net...10.10/release/. I did not use any custom kernels.
