Poll comment :
>> GREAT THANKS <<

I used pbeasy to partition, but found pb more flexible for cloning.
Having no command line experience to speak of,
I dared not (yet) try to figure out partitioning with pb . . .
And then beeing in pb I used it for handling bootmenu and swap file.
So far I found the menus in pb/pbeasy self explaining.

But I lost the bootmenu all the time till I thought of searching for a reboot command
instead of power down/up . . . (those newbies..)
I have not tried backup/restore yet.

Having overcrowded my uncloned N810 a bit with lots of apps I made a fresh start with empty mmc:s.
So I experimented a lot with pbeasy and pb and these apps helped me understand what was going on behind the scene.

( And then I finally dared a few attempts to install+clone Mer 0.9, well the last posts in that thread explain a bootmenu problem, and I learned a bit . .)

Questions :
How to make more than three partitions on an mmc ?
( I read a comment somewhere in ITT about editing a file pb uses (??), but can not find it.)
Can one have two bootable partitions with e.g. diablo and mer on the SAME mmc ?

( if this is the wrong place for questions just ignore them and I will repost them )
