Guys,
Big question, Do I delete the the three repositories( Maemo Chinook
Maemo Bora,Temp fix for broken Chinook) from application catalog that already have with missing apps or will the new repositories replace themselves?
Dan
Edit: Gronmayer site says yes to deleting catalogs and refreshing application list before adding catalogs.
Who is Gronmayer?
Learning a lot. Hope others are too.

See below the screen shot I took of e2fsprogs. It's not installable from this repository on my n800 with os2008! Do you have an alternate repository?
Bunanson this might be causing your problems with memory. Corrupted repositories!
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. lol, Dan

Dan, have you enabled the "maemo Extras" repository and added the main Maemo repository (http://repository.maemo.org, leave "Distribution" blank, and set "Components" to "free non-free")?

Take things a step at a time.

Milhouse,
Very novice but:
How do I enable "maemo extras" repository?
How do I add the Main Maemo repository at (http://repository.maemo.org)?
How do I leave "Distribution" blank and set "Components" to "free non-free"?
I got a feeling we are getting close to solving this mess Milhouse!
Any additional help would be greatly appreciated.

Milhouse I love you bro.
I went and googled all that you were talking about learned about red pill(no clue) enabled it , hit maemo extras and refreshed installable applications and HOORAY!!!! There was e2fsprogs!!!!! I hit install and now I have that also.
Do I need to follow that procedure for each catalog??
Also should I get out of this 'red pill mode' before proceeding with your project???
I'm going to finish this tonight celebrate tomorrow(wait it is tomorrow already)
Please walk me through the rest.
Question I want to put at least 10gb on my 16gb card for os. I have big plans for that space. Starting woith KDE and a few others. Can you show me the exact numbers I need to put down??
lol, Dan

OMG, you really really want to do it.
I have done it more than 20 times and everytime I learn something new.
How big is your SD card, the one inside the battery cover, the mmc2.

Two other useful links, http://schmots.blogspot.com/, read the 2nd section "dual boot" onward. Another one, http://examplified.net/guide/Nokia_7...ting_from_MMC/, it is for 770, so do not follow verbatum, just an exercise for you to get familiar with.
1) set up a boot menu, http://fanoush.wz.cz/maemo/#initfs
2) Gather the two programs, wget and e2fsprogs, which you already did.
3) Partition the card using sfdisk; if not sure, post it and I will help you.
4) Format only the mkdosfs /dev/mmcblk0p1
5) follow this thread #1 step by step,

My mistake they are all in the same three depositories on the os2008 link above.
Maemo Chinook
Maemo Bora
Temp fix for broken Chinook.
I will now try to download into application manager.
Thanks,
Dan
