Okay I am giving that one more shot as I type. I might have had bootmenu-installer installed when I ran the install-tools-ad the first time, although using Gparted it looked as if it had done a successful clone (it showed a tiny FAT partition, two largeish linux partitions both having been written to, and a medium-sized swap partition). Would bootmenu-installer prevent an update to the bootmenu from the install-tools-ad program?

Note any time you change the partition layout (for example changing the number of partitions or any of their sizes) YOU WILL HAVE TO RUN IT TWICE. So run it once, reboot and run it again.

finally tried installing this morning:
Code:
dpkg -i gparted-hack.deb Selecting previously deselected package gparted-hack. (Reading database ... 19253 files and directories currently installed.) Unpacking gparted-hack (from gparted-hack.deb) ... dpkg: error processing gparted-hack.deb (--install): trying to overwrite `/usr/share/locale/cs/LC_MESSAGES/e2fsprogs.mo', which is also in package e2fsprogs dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe) Errors were encountered while processing: gparted-hack.deb

I will update when I get some time. Any other issues let me know, it appears to be working great.

...and I got the exact same result.
On the first pass I got an error and the program required me to eject the card, I seem to recall it doing that on the other card also. It ran all the way through on the second try though. I am going to attach photos of the boot screen (which seems to be immortal now, there's no changing it) and the gparted screen from that last 2 gig card. Very odd that it creates 2 identical 888 meg partitions, but note that the amount used of each one is NOT identical.

Why would you have to remove the card? You should not remove the card. You should reboot between each run.
So this is an n800 with 1 card installed? On internal slot?
I also maybe suggest downloading http://penguinbait.com/install-tools.ad.tgz again

There's a 2 gig internal and a 16 gig external. Nothing has happened with the 16 gig, ever.
The install-tools-ad is what I am running. When I ran it the first time (on each 2 gig card) it gave an error some time after that "starting filesystem clone" message appears 3 times. This error suggested my ejecting the card due to some inability to write or something. Re-inserting the card and re-running the program resulted in it running all the way through. Sorry if all this was not clear.
