As far as i understand this bootmenu thing, every os has it's own partition to boot from. Since the N900 is capable of so many OSs, i bought myself a 16Gig card. ATM i run Maemo+Nitdroid, but by end of this month i will hopefully boot up Maemo,Nitdroid,Ubuntu and Neopwn ;)

So if i understand correctly the partitions would be something like ext3 p2 - Nitdroid, ext3 p3 - Ubuntu, ext3 p4 - Neopwn and so on? :)

You can create a small, 1Gb FAT32 partition and the rest 2Gb EXT3 partitions :) At least thats what I did.

as i see port ubuntu 10.07 in n900 could be easier since it's designed for ARM devices

It needs thumb2 support, the stock kernel on the N900 has it disabled as it causes crashes, I already tried to get 10.04 working, but it failed to even chroot into it.

Wait for a tar.bz2, wip is work in progress, it won't auto magically work when you "port" it :)

Oh and #NITUbuntu on Freenode to discuss it on IRC (nitdroid, ty for the name :P)
