Unlikely.

I have formatted the SD card twice and the FAT partition is detectable in Maemo.

mmcblk0 seems to be eMMC instead of SD card. Can dj_steve confirm?

As far as i know the mmcblk0p1/p2 is the sdcard when it's mounted in multiboot (when booting NITdroid) and the mmcblk1p1/p2 is the eMMC (when booting NITdroid). Android sees the sdcard as internal storage and the eMMC as external.

In maemo it's correct mmcblk0 is the eMMC and mmcblk1 is the sdcard.

e: Haha beat me to it steve ;)

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Help/Tutorial Topic

So I guess,

I have to reformat the SD card again?

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Help/Tutorial Topic

check the microsd is formatted /partitioned first

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Help/Tutorial Topic

Any ideas anyone

Ive completly reformatted the sd card and gone through all the steps again and I still get lots of errors with processess shutting down constantly making android completly unusable

I never had any of these errors with the previous build

and nothing is different at all

The errors I get are as follows, follwed by a force close option

Cheers Steve

You know what I posted that whilst I rebooted and everything at the moment appears to be working quite well

setup the wireless, gone onto google market and been browsing a few apps and downloading them (which is why ive not been back here to post been a bit busy LOL)

I think I have a couple of other sd cards knocking about (as long as the kids dont mind not using their DS's :D)

Alright, thanks! Well I rebooted and did what you said (both p1 and p2 showed, so I went ahead and ran the two commands in step 5 for formatting). Here's the output so far:

My question is that I didn't necessarily un-mount the microSD card bore running the said steps (you can see there's no un-mounting happening in the above log) ... is this ok ?

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Help/Tutorial Topic

OK in addition to the above, I have another question ..

I followed this guide right till the end .. And right at the end, I have an error with the last unmounting command; the unmounting doesn't happen:

Code:

/ # umount /and

umount: cannot umount /and: Device or resource busy

/ #

Also, what do I do now .. ? Like, is NITDroid installed at this point !? :confused: .. Don't we have to configure the bootloader or something ?
