indeed now the Nemo kernel boots but i'm getting a kernel panic due to "cannot open root device "mmcblk1p1" and it gives a list of possible partition options but those are the mtdblock0 to mtdblock5 partitions ??? Not the 3 partitions on the SD card.

So the kernel looks at the wrong device to find the root. Any idea ?

EDIT: Maybe the syntax for the discovered external SD card partitions is different than the syntax for the internal ones or due to newer kernel version the names are different ?

Over to Carsten again ?

Thanks everyone for trying to crack this thing. After the hopefully very close successfull Nemo boot we only have Nitdroid left.

Or maybe (k)Ubuntu and Archlinux, but the followers for those are less in numbers and I guess/hope by then all knowledge and experience will be in the open so it's less painful.
