Re: N900 or what else?
So sad that a phone released in 2009 has no replacement a full 3 years later. I'll be gutted if that's still the case when mine dies.
Good luck in your search mandrake.

Re: Crazy mounting **** all over the place!!!!
The blocks are not actually 1KB on the DOS filesystem (I think that's just how df is displaying the free space). Create a new 1-byte file and you'll see 64 '1k blocks' disappear.

Re: HOWTO: Make your MyDocs ext3
This is why ext3 is a poor choice for a large % of users, it lacks the ability to not care about ownership.
