Code:
sudo fdisk /dev/sdb

o
n
p
1
<press enter>
+128M

t
c
n
p
2
<press enter>
<press enter>

w

sudo mkdosfs /dev/sdb1

sudo mke2fs -j /dev/sdb2 -m0

If you receive an error saying "mounted.... "

type:

sudo umount /dev/sdb1

Again if you get a mounted error for: mke2fs

sudo umount /dev/sdb2 (for mke2fs line)

mount /dev/sdb2 /mnt


Download the android file to your desktop

cd /mnt
sudo tar xjvvpf ../home/USERNAME/DesktopNITDroid-N900-0.0.3-1-Demo.tbz2


umount /mnt
is this the way to partition the microSD?

is LINUX MINT compulsory to install android on the N900?
