Excellent post, very convenient. But I met the same problem as "Unable to connect via USB. memory card in use: Internal memory card". I don't know how to modify the .sh file. I nearlly know nothing about linux.
GeraldKo, could you tell me the detailed procedure to modify the osso-mmc-umount.sh? Thanks.

Do you need to be booted into flash to clone using Acronis True Image?
I wound up redoing it since I was having trouble with CPU usage when my external 16 GB SDHC was in. So I divided up my 16 GB and used it for the internal. Though now it reports that I can only extend my virtual memory up to 96 MBs.. which is kinda odd (I have about 3.5 GBs for the device memory and the rest 11+ GBs is now internal memory).

Can I move the file to my XP desktop and modify it? Or there is a more convenient way? Thanks.

This is over my head. Maybe someone else will be of more help. (Someone who knows Linux!) And maybe this is beneath your level, but: You can also edit files in emelFM2. Select the file and click the icon of a page with a pencil on it.

Curious as to see if this is actually the case I did the only thing I knew how. Got into root and did "free" (linux command for memory).
Swap reports 0 0 0. O.O

You could just edit the file in the terminal as well. With nano or vi. Likely "sudo vi nameoffile.sh" then just edit it and save.

I'm aware that KDE does create its own swap but does Hildon/Maemo use it? Anyway I had restarted my tablet at this point so KDE hadn't been started up again and it still reported no swap partition (as well as that 0, 0, 0 thing from free).
I'm wondering if there is a swap or not though (maybe it's just not being reported), considering some apps I run pretty much need swap or they would crash according to posters (e.g. wesnoth) and they seem to run just fine still.

Thanks for the tutorial!
I wanted to clone my personalized OS on my N810 (A) on my friend's N810 (B).
I followed the procedure closely for the two NITs... Starting with the tweaked OS on A and a fresh install on B..
The only minor problem was the links for the external memory card are different on the N810.
After everything was done, I only had to take the card from A and insert it in B, and press 'home' at reboot to select the external card.
I didn't notice any glitch, yet.. though the exact same configuration for two different hardware may have few consequences.

Now, the NITs boot by default on the internal memory (previous OS). How can I change?

umount /media/mmc2 [someone with an N810 … is this mmc2? If not, please PM me and I'll make a change here]Actually, on the N810, the external card is /media/mmc1 .. and the link is /dev/mmcblk1
sfdisk /dev/mmcblk0 -uM [note: that's a zero, not a capital letter O]
