The Opera Mobile ARM developer preview is also confirmed to be working on MeeGo 1.2 for N900 "vanilla" edition.
Didn't know we have a "vanilla" version in the making...

If by device you mean emmc, then apparently not. A couple of filesystem tests showed the emmc performance to be inferior to a Class 6 card . Maybe a NAND flash will provide better results, but they (understandably) don't support that method at all right now.

Obviously there is a solution but unfortunately until now noone have published a detailed guide.

It is still possible but for now you must find out yourself how to make it

Of course you must rearrange your eMMC partition table to make a partition for MeeGo.
It is not possible to load it on /home as Nitdroid because MeeGo is too big for that partition

I don't know how to remake meego DE image but I can tell you that MeeGo 1.2 DE uses only 1.3GB of disk space so it is possible to make 1.5 or 2.0GB image version

I made an attempt to do this a while back and gave up on it and just did the standard emmc install. I think the way MeeGo seems to boot is to look for a FAT partition #3 to boot from with the rootfs at partition 1 and swap at 2.

So to dual boot you would need to repartition the emmc (I used the BackuMenu method with GParted) either pushing the MyDocs and /home partition further back and editing your maemo configuration to match, or put the MeeGo partitions at #5 and #6 (sharing the swap partition shouldn't be an issue) and then editing the MeeGo configuration to boot from there.

I'm not sure how to do that or if it is possible - I managed to get as far as writing the rootfs to partition #5 and before I managed to extract the boot partition I got impatient and just went with the emmc install method.

When I get a chance I'll give it another go. Oh btw this link here might help you configure bootmenu (make sure you point the menu to the FAT partition - I didn't realise this until after I gave up with it. I also had BackupMenu installed and needed to rename the /etc/bootmenu.d/backupmenu.item file before I could get my menu item to show.

The point of Meego DE for the N900 is to provide a way for early-adopting developers to start programming apps that will eventually run on Intel's Meego phones.
If you think Intel is the only contribute for Meego your really is out of line.

Meego is NOT only Intel! It maybe true that Nokia doesn't invest what was expected before february but you are wrong if you think Intel is behind N900DE they probadly unintrested in that codebase.

Meego is a community project with some of free contributers and also alot of companies involved not only Intel.

And the team behind N900 is "Hobbyists", engineers inside Nokia and some Hardware adoption engineers outside Nokia! None of them is working on Intel AFAIK!

But one is correct N900 is not hipriority for the "payed engineers" for obviours reasons.

We are all free to contribute dont expect Intel or even other companys to do it. The device is discontinued but its upto the community too decide if we want Meego progress on N900!

Oh I forgot some of the new UI is infact based on Meego-ux(Intel) but still Meego-ux(was closed now open) is a rework of qt-compont(Nokia was open now closed in January).

Qt-components still closed, dont know why this still is the case I hoped it should opensource it at the conference but it seems not :@

Flashing it on to device is not eMMC. eMMC is eMMC, device is NAND ROM. It's too buggy at the moment to even consider flashing it onto NAND. It won't be usable for anyone, everything crashing every once and a while which not very nice. But the UI is nice.

I kind of disliked the idea of multi-tasking windows overlapping with the Home screen. I would want my homescreen to be just that for widgets and other stuff. But there is no way to get back to home screen after you opened an application.

Just flashed this new DE version and improvements are visible from previous alpha release.
Still slow, though, but it's at least beautiful.
Testing opera right now
