Let me put in just a couple of notes here: 1. While I appreciate people thinking about using Multiboot and working to make it compatible, Multiboot is somewhat depreciated, and shouldn't be used - It overwrites the kernel partition each time you switch your boot OS! Remember that the kernel partition is on a raw flash device with -no- block-leveling; if one block goes bad, your whole N900 could die. uBoot is the replacement, and it simply chainloads a new kernel off whatever partition you want, resulting in -no- extra writes to the kernel partition. It's a far better system and anyone thinking about dual-boot should be using it. (Note that BootMenu should be compatible with uBoot, though building a BackupMenu module for uBoot(and a boot-menu) would be nice). 2. Manual BackupMenu install would require: A. Extract "data.tar.gz" from the .deb file(as root). "tar pzvf ./data.tar.gz -C /" IIRC B. Extract the contents of "data.tar.gz" to '/'. All paths should work out fine. C. Run these two lines as root: Code: cp /opt/maemo/usr/bin/gnu/tar /usr/share/backupmenu/ chmod +x /usr/share/backupmenu/* Everything should run after that.
cp /opt/maemo/usr/bin/gnu/tar /usr/share/backupmenu/ chmod +x /usr/share/backupmenu/*
