You may not have admin permissions. Try to re-download, extract in a normal folder e.g. desktop. Then, try and copy across the files.

I am having some difficulty getting this to work. After I try to install Moslo, it says fatal error in installing it and I shut tho phone down and retyr install and get an OK message that the files are installed. When I then try to boot the phone it stalls. And I have to reinstall the N9 original software to get the phone working. Can anyone help me with getting this dual boot working so I can get Sailfish installed ??

Did you try to install the Sailfish-preconfigured version of ubiboot?
http://www.swagman.org/juice/ubiboot..._for_sailfish/

When you start with that, you can always boot to Harmattan whether your Moslo partitioning works or not.

Thanks, got the dual boot to work with the preconfigured files but then when I try to partition the phone with moslo:
flasher -k zImage-moslo -n initrd-moslo -l -b

I get a message: Fatal repartitioning failed, so I try it again and it says patitioning succesfull.

Then I restart the phone and the dual boot still works but when I try to start Harmattan so I can install Sailfish I get a fail message:
Boot OS/kernel selection failed!
Please run maintanance boot.
What am I doing wrong??

So, you managed to boot to Harmattan with ubiboot first, then had problems partitoning with MOSLO and after that cannot boot to Harmattan any longer?

It seems you managed to mess up the partitions, propably
It is quite possible you could fix it with ubiboot maintanance mode, but doing that manually would require some knowledge on what you are doing, unfortunately...

To do that, you need to get to telnet to the device in maintanance mode which is not so easy with Windows, so if you want to try that
you'd need to get a Linux version, either live-CD or virtual image.

I have not used Linux very much. I did however install Ubuntu on an old PC because I had thought that it might be easier to get it installed using that. But never got around to try it
Is there an "How to" manual to using this maintanance mode/telnet on linux

Not really
There are some basic things mentioned in the ubiboot README documentation.
Someone should prepare a how-to for it, but the usual linux methods work.

First steps, when you can telnet in the device, is check what your partition layout looks (using "fdisk /dev/mmcblk0" command)
Then check that if partitions seem OK, you can find the botable kernels and init scripts where they should be.

To answer OP's question:

Start from step 2 (flashing), but instead of the usual flash, try the --no preserve or the secure erase flags. Then run harmattan, get everything stable, don't do anything else besides installing developer mode, and try to install moslo again. It should work then.
