Well, I will unfortunately be unable to help with hardware issues for the next few weeks as it got submerged in salt water and I need to make the money for a new one. But I can suggest booting without the sdcard in, if you haven't tried that already.

If I do that, how can I boot to Meego, since it is installed to the microSD?

You can't. I would use that to get back to Maemo and then re-install multiboot.

But getting back to Maemo is not a big deal. I can without taking out the microSD. I just need to type "run noloboot", and it comes back to multiboot (or something like it). But I'll try re-installing multiboot again.

Well, first, do you actually want to delete the partition or just delete nitdroid from it? If the latter is the case, just run:

Code:
root
mount -o noatime,rw /dev/mmcblk0p5
rm -rf /and/.
in xterm. You can then use the nitdroid partition for whatever you want.

Deleting it won't give you any more space unless you resize MyDocs. If you do that, you will lose all data. That said, if you have a backup and want to continue, you can follow these steps (I take no responsibility if you brick your device, make sure you understand what you are doing):

Code:
/home/user/bin/fdisk /dev/mmcblk0
Delete partition 1 (MyDocs) and partition 5 (NITDroid):

Code:
d
1
d
5
Create new primary parition:

Code:
n
p
1
leave the defaults for start and end.
If you are sure you want to continue:

Code:
w
reboot
After the restart:

Code:
root
/home/user/bin/fdisk /dev/mmcblk0
t
1
0c
w
mkfs.vfat -F 32 -n MyDocs  /dev/mmcblk0p1
reboot
Restore from your backup, and everything should be back to normal.

It should be one of the partitions on the microsd card. The partitions are there already in the image, so they have these names.

Yes, it should be. But it should be created already by the dd command (however depending on your OS it may be called something else).
