Very cool piece of software.
I installed it this morning, want to test it with my n800.
Thanks for the time spent compiling.
I really hope one day my tablet will reborn with a "mer heart", pushed by a 3d gfx accelerator and a virtually bigger and faster memory...

Download the package I pointed to three posts before, and save it in the internal 2GB mmc.
Do the same with the package locusf pointed to in post #24
Open a xterm
Type:
That should work.

Hmmm, how strange: installation was pretty straightforward to me.
I'm no linux expert but I give you a couple of suggestion:
FIRST, try with "apt-get clean" on the command promp (as root). Then try the procedure once more.
SECOND, try to open the two packages on your peecee with a program that handles .deb files (7-zip does).
This way you can see if the .deb files are corrupted.
Once the deb files are extracted with their whole paths, you could also copy the files by hand in the proper places (there ar not that many).
Good luck.

The package ramzez-init, the one which really matters, installed with no problem.
You got an error installing ramzez_0.3_diablo_armel.deb, that package only has the GUI for selecting the ramzwap size.
If you type in a xterm
you are done. You'll have a ramzswap partition with a default size of 64MB.
To check it is working, type
it will give you a lot of information of how it is using memory.
Now to fix the gui installation.
First, make sure you haven't a filled root partition.
Open xterm and type
Look at the filesystem mounted on / (third line in my setup)
You should have some space available, if not, ugly things happens. If by chance you have filled your root partition, delete or uninstall something before you are into deeper trouble. Remember, what you see in the file manager under the Nokia-N810 folder is using root filesystem space.
Second, make sure you haven't the same package repeated in the internal mmc card. You should have only ONE ramzez_0.3 package there.
Third, repeat the installation procedure, with a small variation since ramzez-init is already installed

You have to install ramzez-init_0.3_armel.deb too.
