*WORKS PROPERLY*

1)http://forum.nitdroid.com/index.php?topic=315.0 <---- download 0.0.8 version

2)copy the file to emmc via mass storage mode

3)disconnect from mass storage

4) open xterm

sudo gainroot
mkfs.ext3 /dev/mmcblk1p2
mount /dev/mmcblk1p2 /and
cd /and
tar xvf /home/user/MyDocs/NitDroid-0.0.8-Popov.tar.bz2
dpkg -i /home/user/MyDocs/.nitdroid/nitdroid-kernel-2.6.28-06_final1_armel.deb

some have issues with the tar file
"tar: invalid tar magic"
use this as 4th step

open xterm

sudo gainroot
mkfs.ext3 /dev/mmcblk1p2
mount /dev/mmcblk1p2 /and
cd /and
bunzip2 /home/user/MyDocs/NitDroid-0.0.8-Popov.tar.bz2
tar xvf /home/user/MyDocs/NitDroid-0.0.8-Popov.tar
dpkg -i /home/user/MyDocs/.nitdroid/nitdroid-kernel-2.6.28-06_final1_armel.deb

*thanks to http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...9&postcount=23

does no one say thanks anymore?

So i followed this steps and now my n900 won't boot up.. and because i'm an idiot i don't have a backup. Is there anything i can do or is reflash the only way?

dpkg -i /home/user/MyDocs/.nitdroid/nitdroid-kernel-2.6.28-06_final1_armel.deb

So then i rebooted and the device just shut down. Now if i press the power button it vibrates, shows NOKIA logo and then shuts down again.

and yes i had nitdroid 0.0.7 installed with autoinstaller..
