Something is staring me in the face here and i just cannot see it right now but there has to be a simple way of grabbing the entire contents of the "hard drive" in the n900.
Have you any idea just how important this would be to everyone if you could do this?.
I've no programming skills. Just a little bit Linux-knowledge.
But it should work out-of-the-box after recompiling for armel (without the ability to create the required .bin image. mklivecd builds a .iso image)
I haven't checked the debian armel repositorys, yet. Maybe it's already there.
mklivecd would be the simplest way you could get.
By "hard drive" do you mean the eMMC, the internal 32GB memory? This wouldn't be included in the mklivecd, but you can simply copy it.

Instead, according to your words, it seems to be a program that does everything directly while in use maemo..
But someone said it isn't possible while the system in running..
???
it makes exactly a live cd... a live cd is just an image. What we need.
But it seems, you can extract the image with the flasher? I didn't know that.
The image from the device, with all installed programs and modifications, inclusive the kernel?

i fond this ahhaahah extract to /usr/local/bin

then to create jffs2 files of backup run

#0xFFFF -e /media/mmc1/backup
#0xFFFF -x /media/mmc1/backup

to restore the backups you should run this i think

# 0xFFFF -R -p /media/mmc1/backup/rootfs.jffs


attached file at the end
Attached Files
File Type: gz 0xFFFF.static.gz (49.9 KB, 90 views)

I have successfully done this BOTH on the N800 and N810. There's no reason why this cannot be done on the N900. Currently I'm following Fanoush's instructions. He's a genuis at this stuff and he helped me getting it up and running last time.
Maybe but no need for flaming talk OK.
OK wise guy start talking instead of flaming and at least tell everyone how to get a complete dump of the N900?
I am off to lunch so will read when i return.

Wait I have not explained well
In mklivecd project pages you can download a deb ...
Now my question is ... this "deb" allows you to create a livecd which should be booted as a secondary operating system from device to create ISO (or another livecd, as you call it) of the primary operating system?
A bit like I did with HDD Regenerator if I remember correctly ..i downloaded an exe that created a sort of livecd..
Or you can directly create the ISO of the primary operating system through the program ?
