Or can I create or edit one from Ubuntu and flash it.
As I don't want to have to screw around with my current installation.
I would rather just backup and reinstall ;)
Thanks in advance! :)

u can modify ur custom emmc by hex editor

Re: [Announce] NEW Backupmenu-multiboot and new multiboot 0.2.11

What about custom paritions so I can install Nitrdroid&Gingerbread to them.

@mido.fayad

U are just awesome buddy. I followed ur steps & now have both Froyo & Gingerbread on my phone..Thanks so much.

But I noticed gingerbread runs a bit slower..Are both ur custom froyo & gingerbread packages with root user acess?

Lastly whats this LCD density problem i keep hearin in gingerbread. have u fixed it or it needs to be fixed?

Thanks for everything

i think ur problem is : when the program asks u about rootfs backup , u choose optfs backup

so u should have this error

YOU SHOULD choose the correct optfs and correct rootfs when the program asks u about them

thanks

it's highly recommended to restore both and u can follow the insructions on the screen

anyway follow these instructions :

choose backupmenu from multioot then :

press ( r ) to restore backup then
press ( t ) to restore rootfs & optfs then
press ( q ) to restore from SD card or ( p ) to restore from MyDocs then

here is ur mistake

it will ask u to choose the backup file of rootfs or optfs then it will ask u to choose the other one

so u should choose the correct one for each quetion

then continue and it will restore ur mobile

full guide to install multiboot 0.2.11 and backupmenu and kernelpower46 :

download this file :
http://www.mediafire.com/?4729126z6ig11k6

unpack it and copy its contents to /home/user/MyDocs

then open terminal and write the following :

root

cd /home/user/MyDocs

dpkg -i multiboot-0.2.11.deb

dpkg -i backupmenu-multiboot-1.0.deb

dpkg -i kernel-power-bootimg_2.6.28-maemo46_armel.deb
dpkg -i kernel-power-modules_2.6.28-maemo46_armel.deb
dpkg -i multiboot-kernel-maemo_0.3-1_armel.deb
dpkg -i multiboot-kernel-power_0.3-1_armel.deb

dpkg -i kernel-power-headers_2.6.28-maemo46_armel.deb
dpkg -i kernel-power_2.6.28-maemo46_armel.deb
dpkg -i kernel-power-flasher_2.6.28-maemo46_armel.deb
dpkg -i kernel-power-settings_0.11_armel.deb

then restart ur mobile with opened keyboard and u will find 3 choices :

1 - for stock maemo kernel
2 - for kernel power 46
3 - for backupmenu

and from now u can install also nitdroid kernel and u will find it in the choices

mido, thanks for the easy to follow guide.
Also, I noticed you included the development kernel power headers package. This isn't needed for users is it? it adds about ~10Mb to rootfs.

Just a quick heads up to speed up this process ;)
If the only .deb files are the ones in here in your storage just do the following :)
Open terminal and write the following :

type root and enter.
And then type.
cd /home/user/MyDocs and enter.
Now type the following dpkg -i *.deb and hit enter and do this twice as the first time round not all the dependences for the packages will be installed as they haven't been installed yet obviously ;)
And your done :)
Enjoy! ;)
