do you reckon it will run better off of nitdroid or from the sd on maemo?

So i wait to see results. Still trying to find a way without vnc.It is not very useable on android. How is it on maemo ? My nitdroid and BT5 are both on EMMC.

im only at 600 mhz at the moment with bt5 on sd. speed comparable to easy debian. having some issue that may have to do with localization (all the keys do crazy stuff). over the weekend i wanna look into that and editing the startvnc script to make it fit the n900 screen. i think it will be nice and useable once sorted.
we have to look into using xephyr like easy debian does. ill probably tool around with that next week.

Nitdroid runs from SD which is slower than NAND.

If we can run in Maemo it will be much faster.

If we can run this from a chroot in Nitdroid, can it be booted from multiboot using the nitdroid kernel?
