okay, hello all, i was away for a while and i just installed the earlier NiTDroid build. All i can say is that it was very simple and fast ^^ but i have to say that it is very slow compared to eclair's build =S
and as already mentionned i think we can't mount the eMMC for now... but hey, good point for me as before android wouldn't even recognise it lool

and last thing : is there a way to re-map the keys ? i mean as i've a german keyboard on it, it is "qwertz" and not "qwerty" ... so i'd love to help you with the globalisation of keyboards

That's the keyboard mapping file: http://downloads.nitdroid.com/omap_twl4030keypad.kl . Modify it And just save it in /system/usr/keylayouts on the uSD card. Should be fairly straight forward.

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Help/Tutorial Topic

Ok anyone know the most up to date tutorial for installing android? I have a brand new 4gb card and would like to have a go.

If you don't mind xterm and doing it all on your N900 with one window open in the web browser and another window in xterm and then just copy paste, i would go for this one:

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Help/Tutorial Topic

I'll give it a go :)

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Help/Tutorial Topic

Got to here in those instructions:

mke2fs -j -m0 /dev/mmcblk1p2

Then got this error:

Could not stat /dev/mmcblk1p2

No such file or directory

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Help/Tutorial Topic

try this code, it's from another guide on how to partition on N900...

mke2fs -j /dev/mmcblk1p2 -m0

Or just try this link:
http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...postcount=1278
But dont mount the ext3 partition like this guide says, do like the NITdroid install ;)

Or try to redo it the first way :)

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Help/Tutorial Topic

Ok tried this but still failing. I have a brand new 4GB card as well.

Code:

/home/user # umount /dev/mmcblk1p1 

umount: cannot umount /dev/mmcblk1p1: Invalid argument 

/home/user # sfdisk -uM /dev/mmcblk1 << EOF 

> ,< 2100>,C 

> ,,L 

> ,, 

> ,, 

> EOF 

Checking that no-one is using this disk right now ... 

OK 



Disk /dev/mmcblk1: 121008 cylinders, 4 heads, 16 sectors/track 

Old situation: 

Warning: The partition table looks like it was made 

for C/H/S=*/49/48 (instead of 121008/4/16). 

For this listing I'll assume that geometry.

The device apparently does not exist; did you specify it correctly?
