I will be home in about six hours. Then i can make the howto for the nitdroid solution if you like.

Re: BackTrack 5 (arm) released
 

do you reckon it will run better off of nitdroid or from the sd on maemo?

Re: BackTrack 5 (arm) released
 

just confirmed. i dd the image to an sd. mounted it with easy chroot. ran the included startvnc script and vnc'd into it at localhost:2. just like they do it on android... just on maemo ;-) ill play more with it and ill report back!

Re: BackTrack 5 (arm) released
 

So i wait to see results. Still trying to find a way without vnc.It is not very useable on android. How is it on maemo ? My nitdroid and BT5 are both on EMMC.

Re: BackTrack 5 (arm) released
 

I tried the same and got only errors.
Can you provide the steps you took.
thnx

Re: BackTrack 5 (arm) released
 

im only at 600 mhz at the moment with bt5 on sd. speed comparable to easy debian. having some issue that may have to do with localization (all the keys do crazy stuff). over the weekend i wanna look into that and editing the startvnc script to make it fit the n900 screen. i think it will be nice and useable once sorted.
we have to look into using xephyr like easy debian does. ill probably tool around with that next week.

Re: BackTrack 5 (arm) released
 

absolutely but ill be out of town over the weekend. ill do a how too sunday or monday on how i did it

Re: BackTrack 5 (arm) released
 

Nitdroid runs from SD which is slower than NAND.

If we can run in Maemo it will be much faster.

Re: BackTrack 5 (arm) released
 

If we can run this from a chroot in Nitdroid, can it be booted from multiboot using the nitdroid kernel?

Re: BackTrack 5 (arm) released
 

When i do this VNC thing on maemo side, it is freezing my Phone :mad:
Did not happen in nitdroid.
I need to add some things to my image i made and upload hopefully tomorrow it so you can give it a go yourself :)
