Please? I'll write up a pretty tutorial for the wiki so you can all avoid this question in the future!

(yes, I've read all the threads about it...but with Fanoush's update for diablo, I'm not having any luck)
Start with installing a bootmenu first.

This may help, http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...mplified+clone, #347
__________________________________________________ ______
Bootmenu installation, http://examplified.net/guide/Nokia_7...ting_from_MMC/ , perform steps 6,7,8,9 and then 13:
__________________________________________________
When the tablet restarts, connect to the internet and download, http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...&page=20, #199, to the documents folder.

Type

sudo gainroot
cd /home/user/MyDocs/.documents/
tar zxvf initfs_flasher.tgz
cd initfs_flasher
mv bootmenu.conf.n800.example bootmenu.conf #or choose your own one

Close all applications, and disconnect from internet. Then type:

./initfs_flash

This will ask you several questions, here is what I recommend (type what's in bold):

backup? no
remove extra stuff? yes
found, do you want to add it to initfs? yes
ready for flashing this image? yes
Press enter to reboot device

Press enter. Boot from internal flash as we haven't cloned the system yet on to the MMC.

Reboot
sudo gainroot
chroot /mnt/initfs cal-tool --set-root-device ask:mmc2 #pick your own choice
