i have nitdroid installed on n900 (auto installer on emmc) and multiboot.
i want to uninstall multiboot and swap it for uboot but i havent got a clue how to do it. i really do need step by step instructions here as there is nothing in the wiki and from searching the forum it just confused me.

greatful for a numpty guide

First you need to:
- uninstall Multiboot
- install U-Boot with kernel 2.6.28-omap1
- install kernel-power-bootimg (if asked, don't flash it)

- restart (not reboot)

root
cd /home
tar xvf /home/user/MyDocs/N12_UMay.tar

cd /
mkdir and
mount /home /and

install nitdroid-kernel-2.6.28-07_7-rc7_armel.deb

copy THIS to /home/system/maemo/bin/

and THIS to /home/

and extract THIS to MyDocs

and copy THIS to /etc/bootmenu.d/

root
u-boot-update-bootmenu

It's totaly useless when booted from u-boot (no wifi, battery meter, charging...). If you want to use it, I'd sugest you to install it with multiboot kernel.

Good luck

thanks a lot.

I installed following uboot on SD guide on nitdroid forum...
Everything worked except booting from SD.
That can be solved by moving the kernel image to the internal memory.

It is working with wifi, bt, battery meter. Just follow my guide:

oh dear, ive followed ryu's guide at the bottom where it says *note2, but i cant install nitdroid kernel 7 rc7.
it says unable to install. i dont have anything in /and i have nitdroid installed using the auto-installer.

what can i do? i darent roeboot.

edit: android boots fine without that version kernel.

To instal kernel you have to:

mount /home /and

first

Ok, it seems you have deleted android files from /home. First make sure you have cssu installed. Download N12_UMay archive and put it in MyDocs. Run this commands as root:
Copy the files specified in my guide to the specified folders, then update uboot's bootmenu. That's it!

it doesnt wok for me,uboot refuse create entries in boot menu.
it says that it is creating more entries but when i boot the phone it force me to boot the stock kernel(the other entries have errors.)
i dont know what to do....
