If this is the partition instructions from pronukes KDE instructions for a 2gb card - then what would be the instructions for a 4gb card?

/dev/mmcblk0p1:1,15000,6 (this is a ~480 MB FAT32 partition)
/dev/mmcblk0p2:15001,, (this is a ~1.5MB Linux_83 partition)

yep - I'm getting started on installing the KDE!

would I be correct in following a multiple of 30...

about 480mb is 15000

and

about 6mb is 180000 from another thread...

then

2gb must be 60000... correct?

when sfdisk, use option -uM, then one can just use MB instead of guessing.

Post if question.

Do you have virtual mem engaged? uncheck virtual mem from control panel.

Are u root?

N800 internal mmc2, (behind battery cover) or N810 external mmc1 (behind kick stand).
Sometimes the mmc2 or mmc1, in fact is NOT mounted, then the umount command will return an error message. Just ignore the umount step, proceed with sfdisk. If failed, then reboot, and try umount again.

following those instructions at pronukes with no success wore me out...

anybody that has been done this install want to lend a hand I would appreciate it - send me an email at carlatho@pacbell.net and I can give you my phone number to discuss. Perhaps discuss Saturday morning.

Carl
