I've been reading up on this for days and can't find a clear answer anywhere. What I'm hoping for is something like the Nitdroid install: it's 100% on the sd card, boots from that sd card when it's in the phone, and reverts back to pristine Maemo when the sd card is taken out.

I plan on following the instructions here: https://meego.com/devices/handset/in...ego-nokia-n900

At the end it says "flash the kernel." There's also this: "With the flasher, the kernel is loaded to the device, which means that the original Maemo kernel is returned when the device is powered off."

So does the Maemo OS stay untouched or not? "Flash the kernel" sounds like not. But then they say "original Maemo kernel is returned." And does that mean if you want to continue booting to Meego, you have to flash the kernel after every shutdown? (Surely not!)

Confused!
