Qole's script don't install deblet.

You need to install deblet via the installation instructions at Deblet's website.. linked in my Sig, in the OP, and in numerous threads in Debian . The only thing I recommend is after you SVN the installer (as per the website), alter config.py and change nit-env-stskeeps to just nit-env-x .. that way you will install your own window managers since you don't need XFCE.

Before installing deblet, you need to copy the "Easy Debian" /usr/bin/xpice script .. save it into maemo somewhere before you do anything to the "easy debian" side. (from maemo: cp /debian/usr/bin/xpice /home/user). After deblet is installed you will copy that script to /usr/bin in Deblet so that the Launch icons and stuff will still launch Icewm. (cp /home/user/xpice /mnt/deblet/usr/bin).

Once you have Deblet installed you you need to do 3 things:
1)ALTER /home/user/.chroot in maemo and set the variables to the right parameters (the partition you installed deblet too, and the username). Then qole's scripts will mount Deblet instead of the Img file and will launch things from Deblet.

2)You also need to manually install Xephyr, wmctrl, icewm in Deblet... (simple, just apt-get install Xephyr wmctrl icewm). Make sure you are using the latest scripts by Qole in his thread.. he made them "Deblet safe" by not killing the passwd files.. which comes up now

3) Edit /etc/passwd and /etc/group in Deblet.. find the line for user:1000:1000 and change the 1000 to 29999 (both of them).. save both files.. and chown -R user /home/user (if you didn't use the username "user" during the installation of Deblet, replace for your username in these.)

It sounds like a lot when you list it.. but it's really quite simple.. I can help you through PM's if you need.
