I hope u know I gave it to the care center and dats wen I got this new 50/50 trouble.

For sum reason I dnt have trust in the care center that dey know what I want..because they wouldnt give Me this 50/50 partition right?

I don't mind to try your way..if it gets struck on reboot loop I'll give it tomm again after Im done with university :/
What say how much chances of getting lucky?
n to try your way which I did earliar..I faced a problem ayt?
How do I progress that to give a try
Ok... So nokia made that one T_T their weird...
Anyways I could assure you 80% success chance if you go with the fdisk tutorial.

type fdisk /dev/mmcblk0 then enter
type d then enter
type 4 then enter
type d then enter
type 1 then enter
type n then enter
type p then enter
type 1 then enter
Hit enter twice
type t then enter
type 1 then enter
type 0c then enter
type w then enter
reboot your device
For that to work or not depends on your genfstab.awk
Cause the situation is... if N900 doesn't see any /home partition it would reboot.

And what genfstab.awk does here is
start == 1 && $6 == 83 && !__home {
printf "%s /home ext3 %s 0 0\n", $1, home_opts
printf "/home/opt /opt none bind\n"
__home++
}
if /dev/mmcblk0p2 is formatted as Linux partition(83) and there's no /home mounted it would add "/dev/mmcblk0p2 /home ext3 noatime, rw,etc.. 0 0" to your fstab and that should make your n900 boot properly.
