Boot from MMC, I use to do it, not for the 2008Os, apparantly wifi wont work. Have not follow up on the topic, search and find out before attempting the project. I also recommend this if you choose to go ahead with MMC boot, http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...mplified+clone. The first time you do it, it is the same as in the maemo.org. But from the 2nd time onward, you are on auto pilot!

I use to go to MMC boot for the same reason, unlimited space for pgm installation. However, this is much less critical for N800 as it has 256 MB vs 770's 64 MB. First, I throw away all but the eng edition of the user manual, the eng edition I also moved to MMC1. There are 20+ versions of the user manual. Second, I constantly checking on audio/docu/games/images/video and constantly remove/delete unwanted files to MMC1. Today, my rootfs is 62% full with 96 MB available, with ALL my usual buddy pgms installed and up and running.

Dont get me wrong, to have unlimited pgm space is very very attractive, but not without wifi, at this stage.
