what do you mean, what crashes when you install what?

Can you also define crashes?

PB,

I have read the thread pretty carefully, but perhaps I missed the details, so... what is the benefit of this cloning for a regular user of an n800. for example, I have a setup that works for me, and I am accessing data on my internal card for tools like MM. If I copy all those file to my external card (like to a backup directory), run your cloning tool and then copy back the previously backed up directory structure, will they work as they did before, or will I have to re-associate all those directories?

Furthermore, will this functionally give me more "working" memory for applications, or do I have to remove all the apps from my flash based image in order to free up memory? I really want to install more apps, but feel like I am running out of system memory to do it... it seems as those the cloning will make more of that memory free (on the card), but that is what I am not sure about. I would be cloning to a 4 gig card.

Hopefully these questions are not entirely self evident... it has been years since I played with this kind of thing. Any answer would be appreciated.

Regards,

Thor

I finally got mine boot into the internal SD with the external SD inserted. Just leave the system alone for about 5 min during boot up process and it worked. Is this normal to take this long to boot into the SD? Can someone share their average time to boot into the SD?

I run install, then it fails. After that I can't access sd card, and tablet suggest to format it.

drive so it has two bootable drives on an 8 meg card or similar.

Then we can have one for KDE and one for debian. This would be super cool
Now you can, not a deb but just as easy

I deleted the connection entry and retried, rebooted the N800, unplugged and plugged my router, shut off the encryption, but still get "Network connection error. Try again? (OK/Cancel)" whenever I try connecting.

Is there another post with the solution?
I just cloned OS 2008 to a 8GB card, installed OS 2007 on flash, setup the dual-booting using "clonegk" (steps 4,5,6,8), and was about to try out KDE on OS 2008, but once again this "Network connection error. Try again?" comes up.
