I am experiencing right now, problem to install this.
My internet is connects, but I can't download the damn NitDroid-0.0.8-Popov.tar.bz2 file.
All the treads I found about installing in manually, only refers if you already have nitdroid, what I don't.
I am tryign this for around 5 hours, believe me, I am really tired..

Partition on N900, sometimes is unreliable. It is NOT the installer's fault. You may have to manually partition SD and then continue with the installation. Manual partition is good enough, only steps 1-3, formatting is done correctly by installer after partition is good, see thread #419 for details.

If there is a way to do it manually, I would apreciate a LOT if you could point me the way...
Edit.: I know about the install page on wiki, but I do have to change some names right? What would them be?

Ok, I got it to work.
For the ones who want to do it manually, and don't have any previous nitdroid on the phone, here is how I did.:
I followed the steps to partioning and formating.:
1. Open up the xTerm and become root with this command:
sudo gainroot
2. First un mount the microsd card
umount /dev/mmcblk1p1
3. For this step you need to know the capacity of your memory card. The Android partition can only be 2GB, so you need to create a FAT partition that is so large there will only be 2GB left. The number must be in MB, example some recommended sizes are 1, 100, 2100, 6100, 14100, 30100. If its 8GB you can choose a number like 6100MB, if its 4GB you can choose a number like 2100MB. If your memory card is 2GB or below, you can choose 1MB as a number If you do not do this correctly you will not be able to use Android Market!
sfdisk -uM /dev/mmcblk1 << EOF
,<YOUR NUMBER IN MB>,C
,,L
,,
,,
EOF
4. Unmount microsd again as maemo sometimes tried to mount
umount /dev/mmcblk1p1
5. The actual formating!
mkdosfs /dev/mmcblk1p1
mke2fs -L NITDroid -j -m0 /dev/mmcblk1p2
Then, I downloaded both /NitDroid-0.0.8-Popov.tar.bz2, and nitdroid/nitdroid-kernel-2.6.28-06_final1_armel.ded via pc, and put them under MyDocs.
Then.:
mkdir -p /and
mount -o noatime,rw /dev/mmcblk1p2 /and
cd /home/user/MyDocs
rm -rf /and/*
bzcat NitDroid-0.0.8-Popov.tar.bz2 | tar xvC /and
Then.:
As I was already in MyDocs, dpkg -i nitdroid-kernel-2.6.28-06_final1_armel.deb.
This set up the multiboot. I just rebooted and now, I am good=)
Trying to install some apps now, and I hope people having trouble now will make it work!

Just kidding.
You have installed successfully on your nitdroid, and you are now in the nitdroid initial setup wizard. Depends on your installation, initial run could be very very very very slow and that is normal, as if it is NOT doing a thing. Despite what the screen said, run your nitdroid portrait for the time being, you will encounter ONLY 3 options on the initial setup-screen upon sign into your google account:
1) create
2) sign in
3) skip
option is hidden if you run landscape. Hit option 3) skip, go setup your wifi, then log into your google account, reboot. Now this time it is alot faster, right?
Welcome onboard, my friend :-)
