I have installed with the installer which worked perfectly.
There's a nitdroid-uninstaller script which is installed as part of the nitdroid-installer package. I've not run it, but it looks to uninstall everything from the Maemo filesystem. It doesn't appear to touch the SD card or the Android settings in MyDocs though.

I had the "bailing out" problem. In my experience, it is totally bs to say that one should hang on after getting that message. If the N900 turned off, how long should you hang on? Six weeks or so would do no good.

What I did to get it to work was back up and completely reflash. Then it worked, I restored everything and it was fine. But getting "bailing out" over and over (which I did at first) didn't help a bit.

Dude.. Chillax. This is Linux, there are loads of errors and problems. I am having problems installing Nitdroid as well.

My install hangs during the " Formatting /dev/mmcblklp2 (ext3) " stage. I left it during the night and woke 8hours later with no changes.

Follow this threadfor more help.

I was having the same problem: stuck on "formatting /dev/mmcblk1p2 (ext3)...."

I have a 4GB SD card (not sandisk).
Solution: Execute the manual installation up to step 4 (even if some step may fail), after step 4, type nitdroid and go through the automatic process, worked for me.

YUP, just found out the same too, manully partition your SD card from above post, then follow thru the installation, will work.

I can confirm that this worked for me. Surprisingly, it worked even if I'm a SANDISK 16gb Class 2 user.

well you cant actually close it (you need a task manger) but the switch that we normally use to turn the screen back on is "Back".

Suggestion: Advance task manger is pretty good
