and that left Me with not only nothing in file manager..but also not allowing the device to boot..it goes up till the 5dots screen and off!

After searching alot on the forum, I came up with the only solution which is even given by wiki maemo too..to install a ubuntu live cd..I did that..and as per a tutorial video I saw(I dnt have the link ryt now..sry) I could place the .deb flasher file on the desktop but for sum weird reason I cound't place the emmc file on the desktop which I wanna flash the n900 with!
Left struck there again..

and finally I opted to give it to the Nokia care center..I collected it bk today..the device now starts wid frequent errors of application erro"calender closed" thats still fine but My file manager is still blank and My memory(emmc) shows 16.7gb free in device and 16.7gb for installable apps too!!
now whats this new problem by nokia??

I want it normal..as it was
and I tried fdisk..I get the message "fdisk:/not found"
P.S: I have fdisk installed*

Wow! Looks like nokia installed another custom EMMC on your device? 0.o weird...

Anyways do this for your fdisk...

$ root
copy fdisk to /usr/sbin
eg. $ cp /media/mmc1/fdisk /usr/sbin/
$ chmod 777 /usr/sbin/fdisk
$ fdisk

Please post your partition table here to have some info about your device. Is rootsh installed or did the nokia people with their work erase it?
Code:
sudo gainroot
sfdisk -l

There's an extra partition on your EMMC...

/dev/mmcblk0p5 622721+ 884864 262144- 8388600 76 Unknown
What you should do is to delete /dev/mmcblk0p4 then delete /dev/mmcblk0p1 recreate /dev/mmcblk0p1 then assign it's filesystem as 0c or fat32 to avoid reboot loop using sfdisk or fdisk. But I prefer fdisk. It's much easier to do than sfdisk.

Nokia-N900:~# cp /media/mmc1/fdisk /usr/sbin
cp: cannot stat '/media/mmc1/fdisk': No such file or directory
Nokia-N900:~#
You must have a copy of fdisk in your external memory card. If your using windows you should put it in your memory card's absolute path..
Ex.
E:/
specifically you should type
cp /path/to/where/you/put/fdisk /usr/sbin
Anyways if you got fdisk working here's the step by step.

type root then enter
type fdisk /dev/mmcblk0 then enter
type d then enter
type 4 then enter
type d then enter
type 1 then enter
type n then enter
type p then enter
type 1 then enter
Hit enter twice
type t then enter
type 0c then enter
type w then enter
reboot your device

I wanna do this step by step procedure so badly!!
but I can't install fdisk beyond this step "cp root/sbin/fdisk /home/user/bin/"

Im installing fdisk through this site http://n900-pentesting.blogspot.com/...-internal.html <step 12>

So if your on step 12 of that site means you already installed fdisk?
So just fire up fdisk again and do the step by step procedure I listed and it should return your phone back to normal.
The step was just to delete the extended partition, delete MyDocs, merge the unknown partition and MyDocs and recreate it.
