i am waiting for some easier way or guide to install this on my phone so far i could do is partition the sd card 1st partition of 200mb ext3 and 2nd 2gb 3ext3 and 3rd 1.7gb fat 32. after that i am lost. followed the guide in nitdroid and even on the forums.
hopefully there will be a easier way to install this just one flash of a kernal in N900 and put the neccesary files in sd and download bootmenu and you are done. ohh yeah i also have the bootmenu downloaded, but just cant get anything afterthat because i do not understand.

not booting into Maemo through the new bootloader.

but works just fine with the keyboard closed.
loving the update, but unusable because its painfully slow

nonetheless great work!

This thread is better than reading the latest Harry Potter, keep up the excellent work gents!

I'll prob wait for the autoinstall as I am a total n(b)oob when it comes to Linux. But you guys, awesome!

Yes some people are seeing this.
It is still unclear why it happens, but please use the 'b' key to boot with the old script _IF_ this is a problem.

cheers
