I don't think I fixed avidscavenger's problem, but I fixed some serious annoyances for me.

avidscavenger: perhaps run "sudo closechroot /.debian" from the terminal and tell me what it says...?
will it start up fedora as well?

extendedping: make an image file or a partition with the fedora rootfs from this page, point IMGFILE in ~/.chroot to it, and you've got yourself Easy Fedora. vwa-laa.

UPDATE: Use this image file instead!

hi!

when i was looking and browsing my n900's awesome apps, i saw this MouseCursor App, really, i dont remember installing such app but its so awesome! at one tap i got a mouse cursor that responds.

it looks like the one when i open easy debian lxe (or whatever that opens a mac like desktop) is this a part or the latest update? coz i also cant see the mouse cursor app on my installed applications. so i am wondering if this app is a bonus from Easy Debian.

Apt-get tells you how much space it will need, so always make sure this is consistent with the output of "df" (you'll have to add the amount of downloads and the extra space taken after the installations). After any installs, run
Code:
apt-get clean
to remove the downloaded Debian packages.

If the free space in the Debian image is insufficient for a larger scale operation, you can try to do it in smaller pieces, with "apt-get clean" issued regularly.

For getting some extra space in the Debian image, a possibilty is to move some directories into /home/user and make symlinks. I once moved /usr/share/doc to /home/user, which frees some 200MB, by doing the following from within the Debian chroot:
Code:
cd /usr/share
cp -a doc /home/user/.easydebdoc
rm -r doc
ln -s /home/user/.easydebdoc doc

I have really BIG problem. Everytime I mount ext3 partition on microSD, image-viewer check for everyone image (over 20 000) and makes miniatures. So when i run easy debian, CPU is working on 100% for about 15 minutes and phone is very slow. Any solution how to hide ".debian" to image-viewer? I have titan kernel so ext3 partitions is visible in file manager.

Try editing /home/user/.config/tracker/tracker.cfg.
Go to the line NoWatchDirectory and add at the end of the line what you want to have excluded.

rebhana: Thank you, I added /.debian/; now image-viewer is OK, but hildon-thumbnai still eats 100% of CPU for long time when I mount partition.
