Sounds like the partition did not work as it cant find the drive try the step below again. Note only change is from the original post u actually remove the symbol < > on boh sides of your number this should create the partition corectly.
umount /dev/mmcblk1p1
sfdisk -uM /dev/mmcblk1 << EOF
,<SIZE>,C
,,L
,,
,,
EOF
,,L
,,
,,
EOF
Thanks
EDIT: what does EOF stands for? End of F?????

).

Hi!
installing NITDroid via the instructions on the first post of the thread is awesome! and made as simple as possible.
BUT:
* The Rest of your memory card will be usable by Maemo totally normally but the nitdroid partition is not seen in file manager etc
* You need to decide how to best partition YOUR card, i personally have my card partitioned as ~6gb fat32 and rest (~1.9gb) as ext3
* Some suggested size ratios are (in MB fat32/ext3 layout): 2GB: 100/1900, 4GB: 2100/1900, 6GB: 4100/1900 8GB: 6100/1900, 16GB: 14100/1900, 32GB: 30100/1900
* in below command REPLACE the <SIZE> text with your choosen fat32 size
Right thats enough crap now onto partitioning:
ignore errors whjen runnign umount its normal sometimes
Code:
the partitioning part I cant make work! i get an error "Cant stat /dev/mmcblk1p2: did you blah blah it correctly?" i though that this part is gonna be easier for me coz i did successfully partitioned my 32gm mass storage to pump the applications memory size.Code:umount /dev/mmcblk1p1 sfdisk -uM /dev/mmcblk1 << EOF ,<SIZE>,C ,,L ,, ,, EOF
please help!
EDIT: im really enjoying this, even though i messed up the device twice now
Instead of Replace <SIZE> with 4100 try: 4096 - that should work.
The thing is, my SD-card wants als MiB instead of MB - which producer is your sd-card from?!

Tell me if this is working!

You can also do <<LETSGETUSSOMEANDROID
and end with
LETSGETUSSOMEANDROID
But, EOF is the standard way of doing this, meaning "end of file".

I'll ask again:
Is there a way that NITDroid put all the android folders / app data (i.e. download folder, android folder, ...) not on Maemos "/home/user/MyDocs"?!
Maybe on the vfat sd-card partition or only ONE folder for all this stuff?! Cause on the one hand I don't like to have so much disorder and these intermixture of NITDroid and Maemo there, on the other hand I am a bit scared about removing the wrong files!

Simple way is open up system/etc/vold.fstab and change mmc0 to mmc1 this will make androjd mount microsd in theory but not tested

Thanks Steve, I'll try! Reporting here later.
This is what it was original:
What exactly have I to change?! I tried this:
and also
But changed nothing, any ideas?!
Should also be possible to delete the hole 2nd line, isn't it? So it could take only use of the 2GB NITDroid Partition?!

This is what it was original:
Code:
dev_mount sdcard /sdcard 1 /devices/platform/mmci-omap-hs.1/mmc_host/mmc1 dev_mount sdcard_ext /ext_sd 1 /devices/platform/mmci-omap-hs.0/mmc_host/mmc0
Code:
dev_mount sdcard_ext /ext_sd 1 /devices/platform/mmci-omap-hs.0/mmc_host/mmc1

dev_mount sdcard_ext /ext_sd 1 /devices/platform/mmci-omap-hs.1/mmc_host/mmc1
