As per my post, it's not mmcblk0p5 for everyone. For me at least, it's mmcblk0p2. You can see which is correct for you in the name of the nitdroid.item created for multiboot. Removing (or rather not adding) fat and vfat made no difference for me. I followed this post by CepiPerez to install NITDroid, and then continued to edit my multiboot .item as per ammyt's tutorial in the first post, step 7. The only thing that was stopping me booting to android was putting in the correct mmcblk during step 7.

HTH

I've done just that. And I've tried CepiPerez's method as well. Both fail with the same outcome.
Anyone else having my problem. Its so frustrating. I tried enabling loggging to see what the problem was. But even that does'nt work. No logs. This is really frustrating.

Edit:
So dumb of me. Had used $mmcblk0p5 instead of just mmcblk0p5.
Booting now. At the animated android screen now.

This is good that its no longer a requirement to run from a slow sd card

I tried this last night and tbh the performance is about the same as the samsung 8gb class 6 sd card I was using previously which was lighting fast compared to the class 4 I was using previously

still a way to go before it can be used fully but still very good in what it does

Grr.. I've tried both mmcblk0p5 and mmcblk0p2, still get the guru meditation root filesystem not available error. Any hints?

EDIT: checking cat /proc/partitions, mmcblk0p2 is definitely my /home partition. I double checked and all of the nitdroid filesystem is there, exactly like in the file downloaded from CepiPerez's post. The nitdroid modules are in place as far as I can tell. What else could be causing this?

@travik, CepiPrez mentions that you need to have Kernel-Power for his method to work. Do you have kernel-power installed?

Yes I have kernel-power. I recommend you use version 46. It's very stable in Maemo (I never get a reboot with it).
You can use stock kernel for this, but it's outdated to PR1.2 in NITDroid.


For those who want to remove NITDroid from eMMC:
Remove those folders inside /home: bin, data, dev, etc (symlink), initrd, lib (symlink), mnt, proc, sbin, sdcard, sys, system, tmp, usr.
And remove those files inside /home: default.prop, init, init.nokia.rc, init.rc

The folders user and opt belongs to Maemo! Don't touch them! Everything else can be removed safely.

I was running Power Kernel 46 when I followed the instructions; afterwords I seem to have booted into default maemo; I added a multiboot power kernel entry after some instructions from the other Nitdroid thread, booted into power kernel, re-dpkg'd the nitdroid kernel deb, fiddled around with various options in the multiboot nitdroid item... no luck

I'd start over again and try the original method installing to an SD card then transferring... but I don't think this would change anything; the end result of having the nitdroid filesystem on the home partition is the same, no? Is there any chance some sort of permissions got screwed up (i unpacked the filesystem from xterm on the device)? Should I try a reinstall of multiboot?

thx all for help
