As for the instructions, I would like to thank to mido.fayad and tele for contributing:

Changelog:
http://nitdroid.com/index.php?title=Changelog

Let's start:
If you installed Nitdroid 0.0.8 in /home, remove all Nitdroid files from /home partition, by filebox for simplicity, but don't remove maemo files!

Files to be downloaded:
Nitdroid 0.0.9:
http://downloads.nitdroid.com/e-yes/...-0.0.9.tar.bz2
Copy it to:

Code:

/home/user/MyDocs

Nitdroid's kernel
http://downloads.nitdroid.com/nitins...nal1_armel.deb
Copy it to:

Code:

/home/user/MyDocs

Nitdroid installer
http://downloads.nitdroid.com/nitins....2.7_armel.deb

Copy it to:

Code:

/home/user/MyDocs

Installing NITDroid 0.0.9 to the EMMC:
1.Enable all repositories from App manager (Extras-testing, Extras-devel, Extras and the default Nokia)
2.Install Leafpad from the App manager and make sure that you have root access
3.Close App manager, open X Terminal and execute the following commands:

Code:

root
apt-get update
apt-get install nitdroid-installer
y
y again if it asks again

4.After the nitdroid-installer package is installed, close X Terminal
5.Install the above-mentioned installer, nitdroid-installer_0.2.7_armel.deb by copying it to the N900 and opening it via App manager, it will recognize it as a small update for your installer that you downloaded and installed in the third step.
6.Open X Terminal, and execute the following commands:

Code:

root
nitdroid
YES

7.After NITDroid ends installation (20 minutes on 70 kb/s download speed) don't yet reboot your phone to NITDroid! Tap the drop down top menu in X Terminal and click new and close the one before (the one that said NITDroid was successfully installed)
8.On your new X Terminal window, type the following commands:

Code:

root

Code:

cd /home/user/MyDocs

Code:

bzip2 -d NITDroid-0.0.9.tar.bz2

Code:

cd /home

Code:

mkdir /and

Code:

cd /

Code:

mount /home /and

Code:

cd /and

Code:

tar xvf /home/user/MyDocs/NITDroid-0.0.9.tar

Code:

dpkg -i /home/user/MyDocs/nitdroid-kernel-2.6.28-06_final1_armel.deb

Code:

cd /

Code:

leafpad /etc/multiboot.d/11 (then tap the tab button on xteem's screen)

9.Leafpad should open, with your multiboot .item file. Change this:

Code:

ITEM_DEVICE=${INT_CARD}p2

10.Save your file, reboot ur device with your keyboard open, be happy
11.Later on, you can format your microsd NOT IN YOUR N900 to enjoy a regular mmc card like all other mmcs.

Fixes:
Great fixes are included in 0.0.9, including airplane mode, wifi fix, and google sign in. In addition, some users reported that the app market already needs no fixes, but not with me, so let's keep this fix here. More fixes are included in the wiki if you needed them.

Alpha-numeric Keyboard FIX:
Very annoying problem is gone...
http://downloads.nitdroid.com/e-yes/...keypad.kcm.bin
1.Download this file to ./MyDocs
2.On Xterm:

Code:

mount /home /and
cd /home/user/MyDocs
cp "filename" /and/system/usr/keychars/

APP Market Fix:
1.Open the Market app (from the Home screen or app launcher)
2.Leaving the Market app running, return to the Home screen and open the Settings app again
2.Within Settings select Applications → Manage applications → Running (from Tab at top)
4.Scroll to select the Market app → press the Clear Cache button → then press the Force Stop button (Do not press the Clear Data button)
5.Press the back button (to go back to the list of running apps)
6.Scroll to select Google Services Framework → press the Clear Data button → OK (to confirm) → then press the Force Stop button
7.Return to the Home screen
8.Launch the Market app again, which will give an error "Attention an error has occurred..." → OK button
9.Shutdown by holding power button → Power Off → OK
10.Restart, wait for wi-fi to reconnect, open Market again (You may have to reboot several times and check Market)
The opening Market screen should no longer be blank, and many more apps (free & paid) should now be available. (Although apps can be downloaded, a few may still fail to install or run properly).

I Need Speed!:
Overclocking, that nice benefitial mod that makes your lives easier is so easy in Nitdroid. Basically OC'ing is done by editing power.conf:

Code:

mount /home /and
leafpad /and/system/etc/power.conf

The file will speak to you itself, it is so clear. BTW mido.fayad's Nitdroid archive will include a ready-made OC gui app for Nitdroid .

1.Download the file here http://forum.nitdroid.com/index.php?topic=1006.0
2.rename it to vmlinuz-2.6.28.NIT.06
3.go to /boot/multiboot using filebox and backup the file with the name vmlinuz-2.6.28.NIT.06.
4.finally move the file you just downloaded and renamed to /boot/multiboot.

It worked for me. And if you choose to try it I'm not liable for any issues. try at your own risk.

Changes Ive noticed
1:you can now install apps that wouldnt install before like angrybirds
2:A bit smoother
