IT WORKS !!!

I used your setup :

++Micro USB Cable (Samung one) = Success !!

I read on USB OTG for N8XX, that the converter
I used before, already integrates OTG.

After the boot crash that I had, eventhough I choose 2.6.28-hostmode1 in the multiboot menu, after the uname -a command, the output is 2.6.28-kernelpower40.
So I booted on the kernel 2.6.28-omap1 and just reinstalled the 3 kernel package you provided in the correct order.
Then I could boot the 2.6.28-hostmode1 kernel.

And Finally Thanks a lot for the job achieved ! It is awesome !

BIG THANKS guys - Great job!
Here is my result:
first a couple of times did not work properly(may be around 7-9).
I fallow strictly all rules that MohammadAG wrote in his first post.
especially that one:
Step 6: Click Hostmode VBUS, connect flash drive when you see Starting BME.
-first because I was in a hurry, I did not pay attention that I miss to install i2c-tools, that was fixed after first reboot, but still the things did not worked...
-after an hour of rebooting and hunting the time between Start BME and connect USB now - I was too excited so I needed an hour to coll down... waiting the light of my drive to light on...

Finally I got the multimeter and plug one naked female connector and start looking what and when is coming out form N900? I have 5.12V even with less than a half empty battery.
So the sequence for me working ONLY IF I wait to plug my usb/hub/mouse/keyboard/usb2sata(IDE) controller as fallows:
1st-Click Hostmode VBUS, 2nd- Start BME, 3rd-Connect now USB and finally - wait 5 seconds, then everything is working, USB Flash powers up, then I need to press mount /dev/sda1, and Ye-it works!
If I connect before that it does not work!

There a small issue when connecting only single flash drive flexxxv wrote about it but with HUB+external power the issue not present.
I tried to connect the fallowing things:
1.flash drive 2GB /Transcend-Bamboo/ FAT32 - WORKING!
2.HDD 2.5" 320GB Transcend-StoreJet - 160GB NTFS + Truecrypt second partition - it appiared in /dev/sd*, but can not be mounted, no ntfs kernel module loaded, tried to install and load form stock kernel but failed (witch was obvious but..).
3.flash drive 8GB Kingston - Travelstar - NTFS - same stroy
4.keyboard GuoYu - working after connect/disconnect/connect - not all keys mapped correctly (digits and ctrl,shift,alt not working)
5.mouse usb wireless 2.4GHz Logitech VX Nano, some kind working but not correctly.
6.usb to SATA/IDE/2.5"IDE converter 1st connected with 2.5"IDE2CF (4GB SANDISK Ultra - 3 ext2 partitions), tried to mount failed for unknown reason?? its appeared in /dev/sdc1,2,5 kernel module for ext2 is there but
mount -t ext2 /dev/sdc1 /media/flash
fail.
7.usb to SATA (same adapter) connected to LG DVD RW, with external supply - no success here at all /for now/

!!!PLEASE WARNING DO NOT TRY THIS!!!
Clicking on VBUS default - cut off the power (5.12V) coming form USB, but Hostmode CHARGING not working for me...
!!!PLEASE WARNING DO NOT PLAY WITH THIS!!!

I will not have time to make patches right now, but I'm ready to test more, more devices like usb2wlan, usb2lan , Web cam (just for fun), all-in-one card reader, smart card reader (I'll banking from N900 ...and more
Some not good pictures ...

http://mohammadag.xceleo.org/hostmode/Sep%2025%202010/
Location above contains the same kernel updated with more modules.
Should support NTFS RW, UDF, and ISOFS, so you should be able to use NTFS formatted devices as well as externally powered DVD drives.

I also compiled and uploaded genisoimage, which contains mkisofs.
http://maemo.org/packages/view/genisoimage/
No instructions for the time being, but you should, theoretically (not tested actually) be able to write to DVDs with cdrecrod (when I compile that).

Logs are always welcome, whether it worked or not.

Is there any way to access/force to store full logs? dmesg only shows 177(?) lines.
