maybe try less attitude and you might get an answer. You did the install wrong so there is no point moaning at others.

There are issues with flashing using 64bit. If you read the guide it will tell you this and give possible work arounds. You can also use a ubuntu live cd to flash if the work arounds do not work.

Remember, if you are not confident in re-flashing, you should not be installing an alternate os.

the rootfs in android is locked down to prevent normal users from changing anything that will break it. You can get "super user" powers but not having an android phone I have not looked into this or know if it will work with nitdroid.

You can however change your root files in maemo. just mount the sd card to /and and you then go in and change anything you want.

Anyway, i now tried to reflash my device. i downloaded the flasher, the newest bin and typed in the commands, and after processing a few seconds it says "Suitable USB Device not found. Waiting..." although i connected the N900 in Update Mode (you know, this U and plugin simultaenously thing) and i am using Windows XP 64 Bit. tried it with several usb ports what to do now?
On windows I would just use the Nokia Software Updater. I know it works on Vista 64 not sure about Xp 64 but try it.

no im REFUSING to help you as YOU didnt bother to read the howto correctly and therefore YOU screwed up YOUR device. then you proceeded to try and insult the devs so in my opinion your not worth trying to help as your not going to be thankful of it

Ok, a little help needed here.

I've followed the tutorial on Post 1 letter by letter exactly.

I actually SSH'd into my n900 and copy pasted every line.

When i turn on my n900 i get the Multiboot screen with the options of:
1. Maemo
2. NITDroid

So i press Q/1 and it boots into Maemo. It works fine.

If i press W/2 it starts to boot into Android. It shows loads of things loading, says "A N D R O I D" and other things. Then it sticks on a black screen with a flashing (i think) cursor.
I've been patient and left it for 5 minutes or so but it does nothing.

Could somebody help me by telling me some things to type into xterminal that would check if everything is ok ?

@ munkiii :
I just had the exact same thing, trying to install everything using SSH...
I just flashed my whole device again and I'll try to install with manual input of codes

Code:
cd /home/user/MyDocs
wget http://downloads.nitdroid.com/NITDroid-N900-the-flying-world.tbz2
bzip2 -d NITDroid-N900-the-flying-world.tbz2
mount /dev/mmcblk1p2 /and
cd /and
rm -rf *
tar xvf /home/user/MyDocs/NITDroid-N900-the-flying-world.tar
