A few months ago I installed kde 3.5 into my external mmc1 using the "KDE install made easy". I didnt want to boot into kde since I already had my os cloned to sd and was booting to mmc2 just fine. This setup has been working fine and whenever I wanted run kde, I simply launched it from the extra's menu. Today I saw your new version that supported bluetooth mice so I of course wanted to use that version instead. After a few questions that you graciously answered for me I was ready to try your new version. So I proceeded to uninstall my version of kde from application manager. I figured I could just uninstall the version that I had and install the new version. You did explain that this new version would install on my internal mmc2 since that is what I boot to. And I was fine with that since you told me I could still boot to Hildon. I tried to uninstall my version of kde using application manager and I was at the last file wich was the kdesup 3.5.8 deb. It gave me an error and told me it could not be uninstalled. I rebooted my n800 and that is were the problems started. I cant boot to my internal mmc2 anymore. I find that odd because kde wasnt even installed on that card. It just keeps going to a boot loop and I end up back at the boot menu. I fully understand your whole process now, but I am in a whole other mess and havent even had the chance to try your new version. I might end up having to format my card, redo my whole os clone again, and reinstall all my apps again. Im not sure, but I cant boot to my internal mmc2 for now and thats where my whole os and apps were located. I can boot to flash, but of none of my apps are installed to flash. Well anyway thanks for all your help. I'll try a lil longer to get thing this booted up. If not I'll just format and use your automated process of cloning the os to the card. When I originally cloned my os to card a few months ago I used the long drawn out process of manually typing all the commands in xterm. I'll use your quick automated process this time, then once I'm up I'll try your new version of kde. Thanks again!!
