just install xp mode

Re: [TUTORIAL GIGA UPDATE] Do you smell it, do you? It's Gingerbread!
 

Im stuck on this install.
I have followed the steps in the first post and I get to the multiboot bit

leafpad /etc/multiboot.d/1 (then press tab on your screen)

When I follow this I get an empty file with no txt

If I do a 'ls' for /etc/multiboot.d

I get

00-Maemo-2.6.28-omap1.item
examples
README

There is no /1 folder

What have I missed?

Cheers

Re: [TUTORIAL GIGA UPDATE] Do you smell it, do you? It's Gingerbread!
 

try leafpad /etc/multiboot.d/11*

Re: [TUTORIAL GIGA UPDATE] Do you smell it, do you? It's Gingerbread!
 

On Ginger, if you did not have a previous Nitdroid install
you won't have root.

Re: [TUTORIAL GIGA UPDATE] Do you smell it, do you? It's Gingerbread!
 

Nope, no difference - is it a hidden file as I only have the 3 files listed above and no additional directories..

Re: [TUTORIAL GIGA UPDATE] Do you smell it, do you? It's Gingerbread!
 

try leafpad /etc/multiboot.d/1*

it's not hidden, if it still doesnt work then download filebox and try go to /etc/multiboot.d and you will see a file named nitdroid. edit it using notepad or leafpad

Re: [TUTORIAL GIGA UPDATE] Do you smell it, do you? It's Gingerbread!
 

i had same problem. when i did a reboot i only maemo in multiboot.
i clicked on the kernel file in file manager and the app manager installed it.
another reboot i had maemo and nitdroid

Re: [TUTORIAL GIGA UPDATE] Do you smell it, do you? It's Gingerbread!
 

There is no Nitdroid file? I only have the 3 files listed above in the multiboot.d directory
Im going to try the install kernel via app manager install after re-downloading the kernel file as it might be corrupted as App Manager just comes back with an error when I open the deb file with it
Will post back :D

Thx for the suggestions so far..

Re: [TUTORIAL GIGA UPDATE] Do you smell it, do you? It's Gingerbread!

Re: [TUTORIAL GIGA UPDATE] Do you smell it, do you? It's Gingerbread!
 

Can I change the kernel that multiboot flashes when going to maemo? I have a 1000Mhz maemo zImage that I want multiboot to use instead of the ordinary one.

Re: [TUTORIAL GIGA UPDATE] Do you smell it, do you? It's Gingerbread!
 

*sighs* Do good, get nothing. :(

Re: [TUTORIAL GIGA UPDATE] Do you smell it, do you? It's Gingerbread!
 

,

Sorry buddy, can't help you there...I am kinda nooby, btw, my gingerbread says my memory card is corrupt and I need to format, I checked my sdcard, there is no NITDROID folder...

Any ideas?...great job! apart from that, everything is working fine, except the calls which pleeeease find a way to make it work!!!
:D

Re: [TUTORIAL GIGA UPDATE] Do you smell it, do you? It's Gingerbread!
 

Your sdcard has nothing to do with the installation procedure. Androids files are visible in /and once you mount /home /and

Re: [TUTORIAL GIGA UPDATE] Do you smell it, do you? It's Gingerbread!
 

ammyt is right and please dont format it as nitdroid takes MyDocs as its memory card. and it will just format the 32gb including rootfs. you wont be able to boot into maemo. This has happened to me aswell like a month ago :P

Re: [TUTORIAL GIGA UPDATE] Do you smell it, do you? It's Gingerbread!
 

Guys, I still have a problem with space, the nitdroid don´t recognize my 32gb as a installation folder, given me only a fell MB to install, i´m keeping a signal warning of low memory...
How can I use 32gb as usable space, or configure an SDCard to use as installation folder?
Thanks

Re: [TUTORIAL GIGA UPDATE] Do you smell it, do you? It's Gingerbread!
 

Happened to me. Using windows, connect your N900 (Maemo) as USB mass storage. On your pc, right click your N900 mass storage then check for errors, and fix 'em

Re: [TUTORIAL GIGA UPDATE] Do you smell it, do you? It's Gingerbread!
 

BTW connecting Nitdroid to a pc only works if Maemo is in General, Normal profile.

Re: [TUTORIAL GIGA UPDATE] Do you smell it, do you? It's Gingerbread!
 

doesn't work for me i made all steps and nitdroid isn't installed.i tried nitdroid in xterm and it got stuck at ext3.
then i installed multiboot and it works but still no nitdroid.if i try nitdroid in xterm now its still stuck at ext3.
???

Re: [TUTORIAL GIGA UPDATE] Do you smell it, do you? It's Gingerbread!
 

So...should I be able to see it through file manager?
cause I can't see it, is there anything I can do to fix it? apart from reinstalling it.

Re: [TUTORIAL GIGA UPDATE] Do you smell it, do you? It's Gingerbread!
 

Thanks man, the windows was asking before that the n900 need to fix, but I was jumping it. Will try that! :)

Re: [TUTORIAL GIGA UPDATE] Do you smell it, do you? It's Gingerbread!
 

You don't have to run nitdroid installer by "nitdroid" command, just install the installer package. Please follow the guide.

Re: [TUTORIAL GIGA UPDATE] Do you smell it, do you? It's Gingerbread!
 

Connect your N900 (Maemo) USB mass storage and fix it through Windows.

Re: [TUTORIAL GIGA UPDATE] Do you smell it, do you? It's Gingerbread!
 

how to connect to wifi ad hoc on nitdroid??

Re: [TUTORIAL GIGA UPDATE] Do you smell it, do you? It's Gingerbread!
 

yes but if i tried it without the installer there was nothing.no nitdroid even after several reboots.now its installed but i have problems with my wlan connection and the flight mode.i think its a older version.
the kernel info gives me android 2.2.1

Re: [TUTORIAL GIGA UPDATE] Do you smell it, do you? It's Gingerbread!
 

Am I MISSING SOMETHING HERE Just decided I would give the manual installation a go and go over my current 0.0.8 version and I cannot find the gingerbread tar file to download anywhere. Can't find the 0.0.9 either, as I thought I might do that one instead. Have the files been removed or are they justhiding in plain sight and I'm being stoopid

SHUT YOUR FACE!!!! seriously, just kill yourself, i'm tierd of all consumers like you that only eat and ****, and provide nothing except smell from their poop. don't like it? do it yourself? can't do it - shut your face or pay him money for full job to do it. only because of people like you developers less and less want to share their work (let me also remind -- for FREE!!) so just erase your self from earth and make it easier for others.

P.S. i don't care about you saying i'm too rude, cause seriously - there is end for any patience. Not first time, not first guy asking it.
