ask yourself wtf is wrong with you? the thread topic is a very straight forward question.

this is a very helpful thread to begin with .... for those seeking answers whether it's installed or not.

As fatalsaint asked, here's the chickens I sacrificed to m-i-c to get it working:


/usr/bin/mic-image-creator --run-mode=0 --cache=cache --format=ubi --arch=armv7l --config=meego-handset-armv7l-n900-nokia-closed-1.0.80.8.20100630.ks

Seems to be going OK so far, better than my other attempts.. we'll see if it's actually usable or not though.. :P

Ha! I haven't paid much attention to this line before. I changed armv5tel to armv7l like you and it downloads something now

Ok, slight problem: I'm (reliably) informed that MeeGo won't boot ubifs due to size constraints, so --format=ubi is wrong.

Try --format=raw, and look into micro SD boots.

Don't forget to save kernel too. Full line should be:
sudo mic-image-creator --run-mode=0 --cache=mycachedir --format=raw --arch=armv7l --save-kernel --config=meego-handset-armv7l-n900-nokia-closed-1.0.80.8.20100630.ks

Status update:

It works! fatalsaint had the honor of being first to boot it, since I don't have a microsd card with me (I'm away from home...)

...but it is very raw. Screen brightness is very low, no way to turn it up, wifi isn't functional, no way to access a terminal, no way to shut the device off, and a lot of unfinished bits of software.

Basically, it's what you'd expect from a developer release.
