First let me say... excellent.

Eventually I worked up the courage to clone the OS2008 to my N800 Internal SD card. Works (well, I'll explain..)

My KDE swap files are on the external card, and I've left them there. I've been able to run KDE from both SD and flash... but... I'm experiencing some wierd stuff when booting from card. It seems like the external card is constantly being accessed (i.e. cards inaccesable via usb and "do not remove" warning when door opened....)

I CAN'T INSTALL ANYTHING THROUGH APPLICATION MANAGER... Even local debs fail to install. Log indicates in/out errors..(btw - works as expected when booted from flash)

Am I missing the obvious? Should I remove my existing KDE install? Is it unrelated?


sounds like your boot from sd install is corrupt. boot to flash, and run fsck on the device /dev/mmcblk???

And yes, you can not access a card running KDE from USB..
