You could save question marks and type x terminal in google, which is often used to search on the Internet.

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
OK on step further but this is not streight forward hassle free as expected.

Following errors did show up

need rootsh >= 1.8 installed 1.5 I assume the only place I got rootsh from is extra devel and downloaded it today.

multiboot >= 0.2.10 needed not installed

multiboot kernen >) 0.3 needed not installed

bzip2 > not installed

Well either the guide telling me that the installatinon is a snap is wrong or assuming a lot of software allready on the N900. If this is so then it should be marked as requirement.

At the moment it seems my phone screems that it does not want NitDroid on it.

rootsh was available for update now so I should be on 1.8

Application Manager now shows the NITDroid as an update but tells me:

To update your device to this version of the operating system you must use Nokia PC Suite on your PC. Connect the device to your PC via USB cable and launch the applicatoin. (Create Backup button)

Is this how it should be?

@Dousan

Downloaded the 0.2.7 now I thinkg I am a bit further (ignoring my phone which said not to it in any possible way)

Now I did not go into the formating (stopped befor at the exe 3) no it sais its downloading NitDroid_N900-the-flying-world.tbz2

This will take rather a long time was the message at the beginning. Can you tell me how big the files are so I know what to expect in order to find out if it is doing something or hanging .

No thats not right it should just work like any other app and get updated via app mngr.

If you follow these steps from this link Hfirst post) it tells you how to and what to and what is needed:

I think it's about 85mb compressed or something like that... If you have conky installed you can open that and see the internet traffic if you feel nothing is happening

e: Well good to hear, then you're allmost there

Got a message that installation was ok and that I can reboot with keyboard open to boot into NITdroid.

Is this how it will be. Open keyboard NITdroid, closed keyboard maemo?
