Can you burn Linux mint to a CD, boot it and do the instructions natively? AKA not in Virtualbox. If you have a fairly fast flash stick you can install Linux mint to it if you want, and boot it from there.

EDIT: You should do the repartitioning, and copying from it, possibly use a MicroSD card reader if you have one(or if you've done that, try using the N900 instead)

as i speak for my case:
I just did Live Boot on my Second Laptop with Ubuntu.
Gparted also directly supervised all paths, just like on the VM.
Having flashed the provided Kernel Image once again, i also had no luck by coming further than i was before.
I also used different Micro SD to SD Adapter with the same result.

@Toja92 how should the memcard look when you see it in the N900? I meen should you be able to see the partitions or what. When i look at the details it tells me that i've got 968 mb's of free space. I partitioned it with a 100mb fat32 and the 900 with ext3. When i hook it up to vm linux mint i can see the partitions and files and froyo

Just did the whole thing again, partitioning, downloading froyo and putting the files on the card, flashing zImage4 and reinstalling bootmenu... Still no android... wierd

e: now when i connect the N900 to vm linux mint i see the phone 29gb, one partition 938mb, one partition 107mb and a 1gb with a dcim folder in it and thats the same i see on the phone. This i don't understand at all?

Did you choose PC Suite mode?

Anyway, for those that have problems, try DJ_Steves video tutorials, it might work better for you.

I used the storage mode... I don't have a sd card reader can the partitioning be done on N900 itself? It sounds like to me that it's not writing to my memcard when i'm on vm linux mint?
