Latest version does not seem to work with 12.04 modified to release (see previous post)
Code:
E: Package 'openssh-server' has no installation candidate . . . /tmp/install-chroot-part.sh: line 45: alien: command not found

Page 20 and reading...
unknown.obvious: I'm having trouble imagining how to include your kernel in the script. Does anyone have any propositions?
pali: I'm also having trouble understanding new U-Boot nolo atags policy (is policy the right word?). Do I have to modify the script behaviour? Right now it's:
P.S "gibibytes" is not a typo
Besides that script tries some N900-specific workarounds not available in official packages yet and provides some additional options. BTW, if someone feels like doing something upstream.. just do it 
Over time the script became somewhat bloated.
It's all in bash, and I hope it's relatively easy to understand. If you need any comments...
And I think that for this we need anyone being able to see and understand the workarounds.
What do you propose to do with partitioning? Old U-Boot works for only with the first partition being fat FS with uImage and boot.scr. And I don't want to drop it's from "supported" options.
but not going to use eMMC myself though.

bzr: ERROR: Connection closed: Unexpected end of message. Please check connectivity and permissions, and report a bug if problems persist.)

ah, ok. but I think that somebody could publish working image. it is really not good idea to have installer for arm devices...
what dd my sd card? no!
Needs nemo image fixed partition? Then it is bad too! I want to have reparitioned my SD card as I want. And I want to have more OS.
So I cannot test nemo image...

Maybe ubuntu could be the solution to flashing usb-less N900's. I haven't tried it but maybe it would work if we copied the maemo binary flasher from rootfs and used it booting from ubuntu. Fortunately my usb's are still in place but I thought maybe putting this idea on record here might help a poor fellow who's usb is out.

I can post detailed instructions for installing kubuntu but I think it's best the installer.sh gets updated for this.
So far no crashes
but not going to use eMMC myself though.

For other parition support, just write somewhere visible (not like "Beware of the tiger"
) what is needed to change (e.g cmdline and /etc/fstab).

Try revision >= 80, the sources.list was outdated. It also fixes links.

You could put a kernel package or a tar.gz there for the script to download. Maybe if you compile/package kernel-source on n900-ubuntu you even get armhf packages, I didn't try that. If this isn't your webspace and you don't have access to one.... things will get a bit more complicated.
