According to my tests, loop is a bit faster than dm-loop (and both are very close to raw hardware speed)
Thanks anyway, Matan.
I guess I will focus on the new image file.

I didnt want to start a new thread or try to get off course, but would it be possible to use Android in the same type of way you have Debian setup to run within Maemo/Fremantle? A detailed answer would be nice, but I'll understand if its not.
Thanks
Thanks

bdogg64: I honestly don't know. Theoretically, it is possible, if someone found a compatible rootfs (perhaps NITDroid? Any other ARM Android tarballs floating around?). It certainly would be interesting. I wish that Ubuntu guy who was working on Dalvik would put his work into the Ubuntu repositories, so we could get it for our devices, too...

A speed tip: change your mounting dir from /debian to /.debian so tracker, the Maemo media indexer, stays out of your chroot.
I'm changing this in the next version, but until then you can do it yourself.

Thanks to a post in the Diablo thread, I was reminded to map the LXDE "window move" function on the N900. I have settled on the Ctrl-. (Ctrl and period) combination. Any objections?

More tips:
- enable blue keys on N900 keyboard in LXDE: copy /usr/share/X11/xkb directory to your chroot
- speed up OpenOffice: kill help agent, turn off Java, stop autocompletion of words.

What is the best way to resize the easy-debian filesystem? I have an 8GB ext2 microsd and can't figure out how to expand it with your rootfs.

techdork: I recently answered your question in the Easy Debian Diablo thread, in this post.
EDIT: Note that I have also uploaded a rootfs file at qole.org/files as well: debian-squeeze-m5-rootfs.tar.gz
