I used PB's "Clone OS to SD" deb on my n810 and can now boot 30-2 from internal mmc. My installed application menu on internal flash shows no bootmenu-installer. Can I safely install this in internal flash (having already backed up my bootmenu.conf to the external SD)? I ask because I'd like to set this up and THEN try to update both internal flash and internal mmc to 36-5.

Thanks.

You can and should only install this under flash. If it was previously installed, just uninstall it, and install the new version.

The best way to proceed in my opinion, is the following.

1) boot to flash and install 36-5 upgrade, it will reboot

2) It will boot to flash again, now install bootmenu installer

3) Reboot

4) when it boots you will be able to boot to flash 36-5, or SD 30-2

(I am not sure however if the 36-5 upgrade will work run from SD?)
