Be aware that a few things still aren't quite right; for instance I can't connect the phone to my laptop via USB for file read/writing (to either internal or microSD storage). I know this is a problem in one of the files that I patched and it should be able to be corrected, I just haven't looked into fixing it yet because I've been busy and the phone's been functioning 'good enough.'

Few questions:
How big is your microSD card?

You've only made the linux 'swap' file so far correct? Can you describe or copy the code that you used to do that? Just to make sure you use the scripts in the download correctly.
i have a 8gb sd card
i use this code to enable swap on sd card:

swapon /dev/mmcblk1p2

i have to type this code in the xterminal every time i boot the phone!
so what i understand from you is that i wont be able to transfer files from my computer to the n900 using the usb cable but i will have a full functional device(enough space for applications to run/install,contacts,...)?
