If you want, I can generate wiki page of all preinstalled/sdk/open packages.

For example nokia patched HAL package, it provides more addons which are needed for more maemo applications (some omap modules, gpio keys, ...). So make sure that you drop only useless patches (e.g apt patch which disable using apt-get for ovi store :-))

First create system which will work from one SD card paritition and then start thinking how to fit it into NAND+eMMC...

Old gcc in scratchbox has some bugs and is old. Rather use new gcc which has fixed bugs and have thumb2 support for n900. Really forgot not about flashing via flasher-3.5/0xFFFF. Use sd card and untar your rootfs directly. If this will work, I can write hints how to generate ubifs for nand and how to pack it into fiasco image with 0xFFFF.
