HI guys! I used the autoinstaller and installed nitdroid on my nokia n900. My problem is that i cant get into the boot menu. I tried to start with the keyboard open and i removed the battery and the micro sd card.
Ive tried to reinstall nitdroid several times but i still have the same problem.
Its kind of strange because when i started the phone the first time after the installation the boot menu popped up, but now nothings happening,
when i start the phone with the keyboard open the nokia logo pops up and then the phone shut down.
I would be grateful for any help
Sorry for slaughtering the english language, im really tired...

from the wiki
"If your installation hangs on [Formatting /dev/mmcblklp2 (ext3) ...] then follow the partitioning instructions here" :
http://wiki.nitdroid.com/index.php?t...:_Partitioning
After Step 1, proceed with AUTOINSTALLER.
why do i say all this? because it took me 3 tries and 2 SD cards to get it right, and i DID spend the minutes on the forum and wiki

Make sure you leave less than 2GB for NITDroid on your SD card; NITDroid will use the second partition of your formatted SD card.
If you have 4GB card, format your SD card to be 2.1GB as fat32 for first partition, and 1.9GB as ext3 (linux format) for second partition; 6.1GB and 1.9GB respectively for a 8GB and so on.
For 8GB card the the code on XTerminal would be
sudo gainroot
umount /dev/mmcblk1p1
sfdisk -uM /dev/mmcblk1
<< EOF
,6100,C
,,L
,,
,,
EOF
umount /dev/mmcblk1p1
mkdosfs /dev/mmcblk1p1
mke2fs -L NITDroid -j -m0 /dev/mmcblk1p2
Then use the autoinstaller.
Note: to avoid syntax errors and misspelling, use OpenSSH or on your N900 copy-paste from talk.maemo to XTerminal

Check out this: http://forum.nitdroid.com/index.php?....msg467#msg467
So now, how about venturing out to the NITDroid forum or maybe even take a glance at the wiki
