Coffee:

There are projects available for booting Debian. This is not one of the goals of Easy Debian.

I do hope to have an Android version of Easy Debian some day, however.
I wonder if this will be the link to get the phone system working.

Guys,
I currently have Easy Deb installed on my internal memory. I also have NITDroid installed on a 8gb SD card. I wish to have all on the SD card and hence need to make 3 partitions to do so. Could someone please advise how to make the 3 partitions for me.
2.5gb (Easy Debian)
1.9gb (For NITDroid)
3.5gb (NITDroid) approx, what ever is left over.
Typically for the NITDroid we did the following:
sfdisk -uM /dev/mmcblk1 << EOF
,6100,C
,,L
,,
,,
EOF
Giving 6.1gb and remaning.

Coffee, I would suggest using a GUI partitioning program like GParted, but that's just me. I like graphical programs.

Please help - How to change black theme of openoffice.org in easydebian

I have installed easy Debian successfully and openoffice is working properly. But my concern is the black theme of open office. How to get the normal theme (white) for office.org?
Thanks

LXDE->Preferences->Appearance->Window->AvailableWindowThemes->Weightless-Industry(at will).
The same theme will be in office.

Qole,
Used GParted, thanks, was very easy. As aware, I wish to run both Easy Deb & NITDroid off the SD Card. I got the SD Card partioned into 3.
mmcblk1p1 approx 3.3gb NITDroid (fat32)
mmcblk1p2 approx 1.8gb NITDroid (ext3)
mmcblk1p3 approx 2.4gb Allocated for Easy Debian (ext2)

I reflashed both FIASCO & eMMC and then installed NITDroid, is installed and working perfectly on a clean slate. I am now trying to install Easy Debian and looks to all be ok except it tries to install on the mmcblk1p1 (NITDroid). I don't wish for it to be on NITDroid's allocated partition, what should I do?
  • Can I force Easy Deb to install on the mmcblk1p3?
  • Do I make the mmcblk1p3 also fat32 and if so will it still try and load on mmcblk1p1 as it is the first partition?
  • Any suggestions?

Stephen

Coffee: The easiest thing to do is to get this file:

debian-m5-v3b-rootfs.tar.bz2

Untar it as root into the Easy Debian partition on your card. You can do this on your phone or, faster, on a Linux computer.

quick question, if I open easy debian and then just close the terminal (as opposed to using the close debian icon), does this use more battery, cpu etc?

Qole,
