Ok, a little help needed here.
I've followed the tutorial on Post 1 letter by letter exactly.
I actually SSH'd into my n900 and copy pasted every line.
When i turn on my n900 i get the Multiboot screen with the options of:
1. Maemo
2. NITDroid
So i press Q/1 and it boots into Maemo. It works fine.
If i press W/2 it starts to boot into Android. It shows loads of things loading, says "A N D R O I D" and other things. Then it sticks on a black screen with a flashing (i think) cursor.
I've been patient and left it for 5 minutes or so but it does nothing.
Could somebody help me by telling me some things to type into xterminal that would check if everything is ok ?
For me, it was the main reason i couldnīt boot into Android.

boot maemo and run following
Code:cd /home/user/MyDocs wget http://downloads.nitdroid.com/NITDroid-N900-the-flying-world.tbz2 bzip2 -d NITDroid-N900-the-flying-world.tbz2 mount /dev/mmcblk1p2 /and cd /and rm -rf * tar xvf /home/user/MyDocs/NITDroid-N900-the-flying-world.tar
If you have other ideas, it would be great
If not, then, I don't know what I'm gonna do haha.Thank you very much for your help!!

After having reformattet the SD Card with Ubuntu 10.04, the provided kernel file runs and installs fine (YAYY)
After that, i reboot and use the .item file, but then the device says that there are really several I/O errors ;-(
Makes me kinda sad i cannot use your Project ;-(
Well, then i have to wait until you find a fix or i wait for something else ;-D
nontheless, thank you for your support
