Now I just have to learn this new os...
I just seem to get stuck in the opened app.
For example if I open the browser from the appmenu.
How do i close the browser window and come back to the desktop?
Is there a "Home" command?
Maybe a litte Nitdroid get around guide could be something for noobs like me.
A bit over my head all this but im curious aswell
Thanks all you guys included in this project
keyboard has been remapped as follows:
left + right arrows = duplicate volume controls
up arrow = home (hold for tasklist)
down arrow = back
backspace = backspace

I can see all the stuff but i cant go back from the appwindow.
Probably same basic stuff i should do but this is all new to me.
IŽll poke around and see if i get the hang of it

Firstly, this as awesome, I first attempted to install thing last night and within minutes I had android booting with (almost) no issues.
The guys involved in this are heros!
However...
I'm suffering a tiny problem thats causing a huge issue.
I, like a few others , cannot access the home key.
left and right arrows adjust the volume...check
down key to access the menu...check
up key to access home....nope!
I have scowered the topics and seen some other people with this issue but no replies to them. I imagine people simply think they havn't read the instruction. but I am definatly pressing the "up arrow" and not getting "home"
I've tried every key on the pad, including the vol+/- and camera button. I've also tried all keys shifted and fn'ed.
I checked out the keymap file (omap_twl4030keypad.kl) but wouldn't know if it was right or wrong..
any Ideas kind people?

Hi
First off! Great work all the Dev's!
I am trying to install this now for the first time, and I will admit I ain't a PRO on Linux but it did not seem to impossible so I started the new guide posted last night and I think I made it so far as to this line, where I get stuck
*EDIT*
I did the partition thing first, since the guide stated I should.
======
Nokia-N900-02-8:/# mount -o noatime,rw /dev/mmcblk1p2 /and
mount: mounting /dev/mmcblk1p2 on /and failed: Invalid argument
======
I guess I messed up somewhere is the partioning? any tips on some commands or something that could help me check I have done everything right?
is it safe to reboot the phone after I did the install dualboot menu? Even tho I don't have the SD card setup and working?
It's an 8 GB card btw.
Thanks in Advance!

Happened to me too. From what I can tell it happens because sfdisk can't re-read partition table and ugly things happen (as this was the only difference between mine working, and not working). Reboot the phone and start over.
I did this part
cd /home/user/MyDocs/
wget http://downloads.nitdroid.com/Jay-c/...t-0.1.1.tar.gz
cd /
tar xzvf /home/user/MyDocs/multiboot-0.1.1.tar.gz
Alot of files gut unpacked and I guess that also installed it?
But still Safe to reboot?
Now I just have to learn this new os...
I just seem to get stuck in the opened app.
For example if I open the browser from the appmenu.
How do i close the browser window and come back to the desktop?
Is there a "Home" command?
