moepda, if you have a failed attempt the send time you try to download wget will rename the file with a .1 on the end. and so on each time you try.
make sure there are no (bad) copies under MyDocs before running the wget command.

Fixed your post @sepehrsfmech your code wasn't closed properly.

Ok UPDATE: Rebooted device and followed all the way where moepda direction's left me off posting code in a new post to show you what I did.

Uninstalled ssh menu applet (one more cause of partitions error), reinstalled all nitdroid again, booting Nitdroid...
AND WHEN ANDROID ENDS LOADING, AUTOMATICALLY POWER-OFF ITSELF (battery icon showing a red bat, Android now didn't recognize my bat????)

First, THANXS GUYS! BOOTING NITDROID ROCKS! Yes, a little bit slow (perhaps allowing us to overclock could help until GPU drivers
After powering off nitdroid, trying to reboot, choosing again option 4... boot loader always stop after trying to access ext3, going again to boot menu!
Why first time it works but now, unable to boot nitdroid again??
I'm a lot of bits confused!
ANYWAY, THAT FEW MOMENTS WITH ANDROID ON MY SCREEN WERE WONDERFULL!! (Are you genious or somethig like that???)
Waiting for a lammer version , since I can't handle WHY only one Android boot for me.
