The obvious line is the one stating

Error:you already have /and directory

Either remove the /and directory, if it is empty, or run the nitdroid-uninstaller to delete former, may be non-working, versions of nitdroid

No i am not at all familiar with the installer, did it manually because of the better control to the process.

The steps to be taken are deeply buried in this thread at http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...postcount=4011 and in the following posts, because the description was incomplete: The files had to be fetched and placed to the right place manually. The version of the installer, which was needed, but must not be executed, was important.

Nevertheless you might try to read it and, if needed, ask for further assistance.

There is also a wiki article for information http://wiki.maemo.org/Nitdroid_easy_install_on_EMMC

nitdroid installed successfully, but upon reboot with the keyboard slid out, i am booted straight into maemo. no option to choose between nitdroid or maemo.

Try to get some more output from the install process by using the terminal

Code:

sudo gainroot
apt-get install multiboot

Please copy and paste the output here.

I've searched that, and it says about editing multiboot.d, but that post was years ago, and I can't find what they are referring to when they say "follow from steps 7c"

Nitroid is installed on EMMC, and i've used a custom 8gb 20gb img.

Maemo works, faster than it did before I wiped all the crap out!

Can ignore!

Redownloaded the installer from the first post, after a few failed attemps, it took a long time, and worked!

The installer on application manager is different?! It starts to format locations on the EMMC, then crashes!

Cheers
