I didn't believe what http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/N900/Install/MMC said about preparing MMC directly with N900 and I think it is most easy and fast way =)
You need N900 with ssh server (or you must be typing guru) and MMC inside phone.
You need also package bzip2 and root.
On phone
Be sure MMC is not mounted. (umount /dev/mmcblk1)
cd MyDocs
wget http://repo.meego.com/MeeGo/builds/1...cblk0p.raw.bz2
root
bzcat /home/user/MyDocs/meego-handset-armv7l-n900-1.0.99.2.20101019.1-mmcblk0p.raw.bz2 | dd bs=4096 of=/dev/mmcblk1
Download size is about 500M. Unpacking and writing takes 11 minutes.
Then flash/load related kernel from PC and boot. There are not anymore need to press any key when booting.
(i.e.
shut down phone
PC: flasher-3.5 -l -k <kernel> -b
connect PC<->N900
wait
wait more)
It boots very long and it looks like nothing happens, it is totallly black. After several minutes light will go ON. And then it continues booting.
It is slow and there are many things missing, but MeeGo works on N900!

Things I didn't manage on MeeGo:
*How to see running applications?
*How to switch between running applications?
*How to quit applications (e.g. music player)?
[Shortly: Dashboard?]
*How to enter PIN (or is phone calls supported on this version?)
*How to use sudo? (password?)
*Is there any repositories enabled to test more applications?
