Page 30 it is. Thanks very much, I look into this thread only few times a month and must have missed it.

EDIT: Oh, just figured out that this howto is not for multiboot ... too nasty for me ...

Just tried booting Android using the guide on page 30.
Unfortunately, the kernel panic'd so I popped out the battery because I wanted to re-format the sd card and try again.
Now I'm stuck at a Nokia Screen with some icon beneath it (it shows a computer screen with a wrench above it)
When I pop out the battery and put it in again the device doesn't even try to boot, it instantly gets to that screen.

Any suggestions?

Edit: My computer recognises the N900 as an unknown USB Device in this state.
Edit2: Ok, managed to get it into flashing mode. Was quite tricky though: Had to pull out the usb cable, then pop the battery out. After that, I had to plug in the USB cable again and press U while putting the battery back in

WOW! Thanks for sharing this hint, I may end in this kind of sh*t myself ...

Sorry it ain't easy to backread 62 pages ^_^
One last question if phone ability isn't supported will it be on the near future? I mean are there plans? Or no hope at all?

steve has already said previously phone capabilities will be very difficult to impliment. besides this is, i believe, a one guy project so give him time. patience is a virtue i'm quite positive we will get a functioning smartphone some day with android/n900. maybe it'll be better than meego who knows
