Use a text editor to edit or simply use nano to edit /sbin/preinit/

Also once you use farfary's preinit, it replaces the previous preinit so there is no such thing as a clean installation...You are replacing one file with another...

If you still want to do so just delete /sbin/preinit and then use farfary's preinit after that...


Edit: Think of preinit as a boot-menu type of thing...By default the n9 will boot into meego but preinit will intercept the regular boot and give you options to boot into a particular OS...Also you can imagine it as something like installing Ubuntu on Windows...You would need GRUB to be able to boot into Ubuntu but if you don't have GRUB properly configured it'll boot into Windows by default...Same thing here...

Yes, I know well dual/multi boot OS (Linux & Windows) with GRUB or BURG , but I ask for a clean installation because in a previous post, the user MAX9 said that had a problem with:

1. turn device off
2. really off
3. connect it to the charger
4. let automatically boot, don't touch
5. freeze on the old nitdroid multiboot menu

Ok I just tested this with Nitdroid preinit, reboot then installed Backup Menu...

- Switched off my phone by pressing the button for 8seconds

- Plug into charger

- The phone boots up and the Backup Menu's boot menu is shown

I don't press anything and allow the 49s to lapse...After 49s the screen blanks with the charging icon appearing and the white led blinking slowly to indicate charging...


Maybe MAX9 used an older version?

Also m-e-s and m-e-s-f files
However, I also think that 49 there are too many seconds

Why you said is it not important? I think it's very important for the safety of all

PS: I also think that there isn't an english problem but a copy & paste problem
