Yep!! In fact, this is exactly what Multiboot does.

What for??

The main problem after booting in MeeGo is that Multiboot is no more executed! The MeeGo kernel doesn't run it.

eL.ectron1k,
If you already have stuff on your flash card then use Gparted. You can easily resize partitions and make new ones from empty space. Since ubuntu is stalled, you can try to install debian instead. They are very similar[ubuntu is based on debian], but ubuntu repositories have newer builds. I was somewhat successful following this: https://elektranox.org/website/debian_on_n900.html#nodm guide, but the gnome was unusable because of some bug.

Re: Maemo 5 | Nitdroid | MeeGo | Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic
 

aligatro, are u talking about Easy Debian, or separate system on partiton?
If first, i have it, but it works hard because it's a new process in maemo, not new started from partition.

If second, i'll check it too.

Thx!

P.S.

I have no stuff on SD card, because i bought that just for systems.

Guys, please help me)

Can't mount my SD card (9gb capacity = mmcblk1p4).

In FIles ( Default file manager ) i can see only internal memory, but cant see SD.

I tryed to do that:

mount /dev/mmcblk1p4 /media/mmc1

as i see, i making a mistake somewhere....

Re: Maemo 5 | Nitdroid | MeeGo | Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic
 

You have got your back over on??

If so, Maemo should automatically mount the fat partition. Have you checked in file manager to see if the sd card is there?

>>You have got your back over on??

Yep

>>Have you checked in file manager to see if the sd card is there?

I wrote by myself /dev/mmcblk1p4 in /etc/fstab and it works, but now carg is damaged.


Trying to use now...

mkfs.vfat /dev/mmcblk1p4


* Made operation with mkfs.vfat, but here is message "The format of your SD card is not supported" <---- Translated from Russian

Re: Maemo 5 | Nitdroid | MeeGo | Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic
 

Hm, NitDroid doesn't work....

n900 loads, multiboot - i press 1 - lots of string - after battery27x00.....blablabla he is stopped.
I can just eject battery than maemo loads

Re: Maemo 5 | Nitdroid | MeeGo | Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic
 

I think you need to re-extract the NITdroid rootfs and that should make it work. It's a known issue that sometimes you have to re-extract. Don't know why it doesn't do it right the first time?

Hope you get the Meego running from sdcard and please do share how to if you get it going :D

Re: Maemo 5 | Nitdroid | MeeGo | Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic
 

I ran MeeGo in my N900. You can see some photos here (sorry, the blog is in Brazilian Portuguese).

All you need to do is follow these instructions.

As I said before, unfortunatelly isn't possible use Multiboot to run MeeGo, Maemo and NITDroid together. I can boot in MeeGo, but cannot boot back in Maemo or NITDroid without using Flasher...at the moment.
