and now it seems I can't get past the nokia logo anymore...

was on maemo and I turned the phone off (which I already had done many times now trying to boot into droid but failing) and then tried to boot to nitdroid but the phone just turned off and now when I try to start it, it just goes to the nokia logo and can't get past that :/

I guess Maemo is upset that it doesnt match with what the standard Maemo OS.

Is there any way around this? Here is what Xterminal says:

/home/user # apt-get install wget
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
mp-fremantle-205-pr: Depends: obexd (= 0.18-0maemo5+0m5) but 0.28-0maemo3 is to be installed
Depends: libopenobex1 (= 1.4-0maemo3+0m5) but 1.5-2 is to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
/home/user #

Does this mean I need to try: 'apt-get -f install wget' to ignore the unmet dependencies?

Thanks

if you modified those files and download them they will overwrite you moded files and your handsfree kit probably wont work no more. I don't know if you can modify them after installing, if that's gonna make some other issue? To be frank i'm not sure what you should do here? Maybe hope for some linux exp. to answer your question or just try it?

Maybe you could download the .deb file from here and do it through app mngr. Just tap on the .deb file when downloaded?

Or maybe you could use the download links in the guide. Just copy and paste in a browser window on your N900 and save them to /home/user/MyDocs and then just do the guide without the wget steps?

Me too but it seems you always have to repeat "step 6" http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=523

Also android will probably never boot the first time, try 2-3 times before using the above.

Also make sure your boot file is properly edited via the console in etc/multiboot.d.

Here's mine, it's far easier to ssh-it in there

Never edit it in windows

Thanks Dousan. That's the way I'll do it - download NITDroid and all that myself and install them via Xterminal.

The next problem:
Multiboot has been successfully installed. I tried to do the NITDroid bit but it basically says, I haven't got bzip2 installed - which is correct. I am not able to install it via Xterminal as you know, and am unable to find it in the application manager. Any ideas? Are there any other programs I will need to get this up and running?

Nearly there.. hopefully. This isn't as easy as I thought.
