"BTW, I don't use this on the N900 but as others have stated, the fact that I can is one of the reasons why I like the N900 in the first place."

Absolutely! Just the fact that you guys are able to port Android to N900!

I was just thinking, now that the USB OTG on N900 thread is closed for the time being, wouldn't it have been great if you could install NITDroid on a USB pendrive and somehow do a boot from USB from the N900 to boot NITDroid?

I tried with Wifi as well as 3G since sometimes I had the problem that some app-repositories would not be resolved. Both ways did not work.

"root" logs you back into as root to it's home directory. That's why you see that "Nokia-N900-51-1:~#"

"sudo gainroot" gives you root privileges there itself. So, your present working directory is retained.

Guess, "root" internally calls "sudo gainroot" and then it does some things extra.

"whoami" will return "root" for both the above ways.

Looks like you haven't enabled "extras" repository. Search the forums to find out how to enable it.

Alternatively, you can follow http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=151 post to install "nitdroid-installer" on your N900.

I'd really like to try this but I'd like to see the speed first. What SD card class is recommended? Are there any videos showing performance?

Thanks.

then look for the overclocking thingy on nitdroid forum
copy the template u need, paste it on notepad and named it "power.conf" then copy it to ur emmc
then xterm, cp /home/user/MyDocs/power.conf /and/system/etc/power.conf
and use ur own brain and correct the spellings

I think I am in over my had. Not enough (no unix) know-ledge at all.

Downloaded it to my N900 by clicking on the link provided.

Now I guess I need to move the file to /home/user/MyDocs

Looked a bit at http://freeengineer.org/learnUNIXin1...es.html#Moving but don't even find the files on x terminal

And it seems its no way just to drag and drop it someplace in Win XP Explorer :-)

So I guess not to bother you guys to much I hope it will show up on extra-devel for me (maybe with router at home)

Thanks for everything so far.

Markus

When downloading just choose /home/user/MyDocs in the pop up window of the download screen. Tap on the arrow in the left corner untill you're at the N900 directory and then choose that. N900 and /home/user/MyDocs is the same directory It's named the first in the directory browser on the phone and the latter in xterm.

Find the location of the file and move it to N900, Just tap and hold and then choose 'move' and then choose directory the same way as when downloading

Then do the commands in my other post
