*Back and EDIT*

I have no clue what is going on, I have tried all things I can imagine now, if I make 2 fat32 ones, they both work fine, but however I try, I can't create a ext3 one, it always comes up with error messages in Mint Linux, Card is brand new, just got it yesterday, formated the whole card to fat32, no errors so the card seems just fine.

Any tip at all whan I can try?

Try to use these instructions from the wiki

I took the plunge seeing how much excitement there has been here ith nitdroid. Followed dj-steve's latest instructions to partition and install all directly from my n900 and boots up fantastic! You guys rock!

I'm posting for some help with setting up the buttons. The volume up/down and back buttons work fine using the direction arrows right/left and down respectively. However, home button doesn't seem to be working as arrow up. Is this a problem on this latest build or did I miss some step on setting up key maps?

No, DjSteve! I did using the correct files for N810. But, i guess, as is the same os, can have kinda solution for both =D

For N8x0 devices the NITdroid v2 isn't going to work, i guess

BTW, i really dunnot see a way to dual boot NITdroid and Diablo....

It is going to be really good if someone could help me, considering a load of users get the same problem.

Today i've tried for 5 times, all unsuceful, but keep trying.

(Sorry for my English, but i'm trying to improve it!)

Thanks in advance

guys, when i want to partition, umount /dev/mmcblk1p1, it said no such file...

and then some guy said that mmcblk1 will turn into mmcblk1p1 after partitioned.
when i did umount /dev/mmcblk1, it said invalid argument, what do i do?

btw this is for nokia n900

As i remember it i got the same error as you when i did it but proceeded anyway. That worked for me, i could see that it had partitioned the card when i checked it in xterm. You can get the help to what code to write in sfdisk on the n900 to check the partitions i cant remember it right now

I am having the same problem I tried different names

umount /dev/mmcblk1
umount /dev/mmcblk
umount /dev/mmcblkp1

etc keep receiving same error message:
umount: cannot umount /dev/mmcblk : no such file or directory

This is a brand new 16 GB class 6 microsd I formatted the card with the filesystem app on the n900 (standard built-in app)

I am thinking the name of the microsd is not the same as yours.

Can anyone tell me how to find the microsd card name via terminal in n900?

I figured out what the name was....

Also I can see that the card is there just want to format it so I can get the Froyo installation going.

I'd like to format the card 10GB Fat32 and 1.9 GB EXT3 is there additional instructions that I have to complete to preform this?

I'm also currently installing the latest NITDroid, let's see how it goes. I'm pretty excited as an Android phone was my second option for a new device. Now it seems I can get both, thanks to the awesome people of the community.
