Booting Maemo from SD card?
 
Hello people. Haven't been here in a while since N900 "bricked". Would like to know if there is a way to make Maemo an option through multiboot. Can't use N900 to mess around with the SD card since it's bricked, so I need to either do it through my android phone or my computer. Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

Hmm, I was wondering for a way to boot Maemo without using MTD5 at all, freeing MTD5 for mtdswap.

Anyways, as long as you have a complete filesystem on sdcard (and fstab regeneration disabled -- see ext2/3 on /media/mmc1 thread) and a proper fstab made, I don't see why Maemo wouldn't boot from sdcard.
