Great, many thanks ammyt.

I'm almost good to go, as I have errors with some packages in apt-get since my Backupmenu restore, but nothing that should be discussed in the present topic. :]

Nah nothing much I can do now with my crappy edge-speed network connection, I was just about to go to sleep.
As much as I recommend you to reflash FIASCO, I also know that this might be inconvenient if you've got a lot of stuff so, if apt-get is bothering you, I can supply you with all the .debs you shall need, why don't you try repartitioning?...

BTW anybody here with WIKI formatting skills? Why is the text in the WIKI starting from "Fixes" till the end centered?

Like, uhmm... I couldn't find anything on the Nitdroid EMMC wiki. Been searching a bit for the work around. Thanks for pointing in the right direction.

However, good too see you're over your problems

EDIT: Since you're using setcpu, I recommend you to set the lower limit to 250, or even 125, to avoid turning you're N900 to a nuclear power plant.
Maybe it would be better to ad an entry in the WIKI which recmoends instaling setcpu for everyone and test what is the scale of the cpu?

If you copied your music and videos in the dedicated folders in Maemo, (.images, .sounds or .videos) NitDroid won't be able to read them because it does not support hidden folders. You will have to rename these folders by removing the dots.
Example: .sounds to Sounds, .images to Images and .videos to Videos
