erm!

WHat do you get for?
Code:
ls -l /boot/multiboot
If that folder has the right contents... ie at least a file called "vmlinuz-2.6.28.NIT.06"

and

If you put in what I said my file was into 11-NITDroid-mmcblk0p2-2.6.28.NIT.06.item withouth spellign mistakes and you DONT have a micro cd card then it might! (past my area of experience at the "Unknown operand" error)

PS make sure you reboot with the keyboard open or you may just go back to maemo.

The output of
Code:
ls -l /boot/multiboot
may show there's no kernel to boot nitdroid from, it should have "vmlinuz-2.6.28-omap1" though which is put ther ewhen multiboot is installed I think.
