guys i had to post somewhere but didnt wanna clutter the dev thread. not really needing help (yet) because havent had the time, or drive, really, to install android to my phone.

having said that, i want to give the most incredible amount of kudos to all the lads behind this project (and ladies, if there are any?)
im not that aware of who is heavily involved (only a couple of really obvious names like djsteve and e-yes stick out) but im sure there are loads of people helping out (such as toja with his guide above).

to all you guys (apologies to the ones i havent mentioned because im sure there are heaps of you ), thanks a hell of a lot. not only are you doing a massive, incredible thing for the community, youre also supporting people who may not have the same experience you do. pretty rare to find a community of people who are that willing to help out other members. again sorry for cluttering up this thread with a semi-irrelevant post but i had to say it. i appreciate all the time effort and hard work that has gone into this project and its one of those things that makes me so glad i chose the n900.

cheers guys, keep up the fantastic work, were all loving it so far

great work guys, silly Q:

does the phone work?

Edit: no

wifi does! (after a few boots)

plus the net is fast!

edit: I go to play music, but it says i have no sd card?

i really dont like having to use the keyboard 'up' button to close apps either

2) I have a windowXP box. I also have a linux Mint box, which one is less prone to fail? I am a windowXP boy

Edit: I take a look at the script, apparantly all the files need to be flashed will be dl and stored in MyDocs. Do I just flash the 3 files from MyDocs will take care of it?

TIA,

Just run the script, then you will need to flash zImage manually as I wrote in my previous post.

This is what you want to flash via your computer: http://downloads.nitdroid.com/Autoin...-zImage-latest
It's only the kernel so it's small. Also take a look at the flashing section in my guide, you'll need to add a few commands

you have a space between ./ and the file command should be like below

Code:
./installer.sh

Erm.. I'm sorry if this has been answered already but, When android boots and the wallpaper appears no icons appear and the menu bar isn't there either. It used to start working when I pressed sym&shift but now nothing...
