Hello,

This boot video is made by Nokia and was used on the Maemo 5 videos which can be found on maemo.nokia.com.

All I did was to trim/convert the video so it can be used as boot video for our devices.


How to install:

PREVIEW OF BOOT VIDEO: MAEMO.AVI

1) Download default.conf and maemo.avi OR muted version: [ default.conf & maemo_muted.avi ]
2) Copy these files on your N900's Documents folder
3) Open xterm and type (rootsh required):
Code:
sudo gainroot
mv /home/user/MyDocs/.documents/default.conf /etc/hildon-welcome.d/
mv /home/user/MyDocs/.documents/maemo.avi /opt/
cd /usr/share/hildon-welcome/media/
ln -s /opt/maemo.avi maemo.avi
How to install MAEMO 2.avi:

PREVIEW OF BOOT VIDEO: MAEMO2.AVI

1) Download default.conf and maemo2.avi
2) Copy these files on your N900's Documents folder
3) Open xterm and type (rootsh required):
Code:
sudo gainroot
mv /home/user/MyDocs/.documents/default.conf /etc/hildon-welcome.d/
mv /home/user/MyDocs/.documents/maemo2.avi /opt/
cd /usr/share/hildon-welcome/media/
ln -s /opt/maemo2.avi maemo2.avi
Optified thanks to Flandry.
Quoting him:
"Be careful not to delete the movie file in opt. I don't know what happens if it fails to find a boot video... hopefully nothing at all, but i don't want to test".

If you want to revert back to the default nokia boot video(Hands-v32-h264.avi) copy this default.conf
to your N900 Documents folder, open xterm and type:
Code:
sudo gainroot
mv home/user/MyDocs/.documents/default.conf /etc/hildon-welcom.d/
Enjoy.
