I still need it for the old U-Boot. Should I add another selection: "Bootmenu or boot.scr"?
I don't mind if someone will create the image and upload it somewhere but it will not be me Any legal issues with that? Any trusted space to put it?
About the tiger: Yes, I think I'll try to add another option to not repartition the card but select only the target partition/file. But it will be a lot of changes.

You could put a kernel package or a tar.gz there for the script to download. Maybe if you compile/package kernel-source on n900-ubuntu you even get armhf packages, I didn't try that. If this isn't your webspace and you don't have access to one.... things will get a bit more complicated.
It's not mine, but apachelogger is frequently online on IRC (including #kubuntu-mobile@freenode). I think you need to contact him about it. IIRC he does have access to the ARM servers to build it.

unknown.obvious: your kernel installs just fine with
# dpkg --foreign-architecture armel -i /tmp/linux-image-2.6.37-n900_2_armel.deb
It just doesn't update the /vmlinuz and /initrd.img links.

BTW you may want to look at the patches here:

https://gitorious.org/community-ssu/...cdab5f059440c6
https://gitorious.org/community-ssu/...1e65f71799c813

and forward-port them to your build (should be easy, ping me on #maemo if you need some help), so the kernel no longer will depend on u-boot to enable thumb errata workaround(i.e. uboot-pr13 will do the job too)

COMMENTS:
Kernel from http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=151, installed using
# dpkg --foreign-architecture armel -i /tmp/linux-*.deb
(didn't copy the sources).
Getting firmware from MeeGo sources didn't work yet, will fix later.
Notes:
  • lubuntu-desktop doesn't install xserver (possibly because of --no-install-recommends)
  • chromium-browser is surprisingly fast
  • had to restart lxdm to return to GUI
  • seen two kernels panics but during startup only

Well, I got bzr to work, but the script didn't work for me; dpkg failed to install fseventd and fsevent-n900, and the script dumped me into a root shell before finishing (and presumably before setting up the uboot stuff, because uboot couldn't find the boot script when I tried it). I will try again, but: what programs exactly need to be installed for the phone to work? Will everything work if I just leave it on defaults?

I tried with all defaults, and I didn't get the fseventd error - but the install still failed at about the same place, with the following errors:
Code:
error: not an rpm package
error: bcm-bt-firmware-0.21rc3-1.2.Nemo.Adaptation.N900.noarch.rpm: not an rpm package (or package manifest)
Error executing "LANG=C rpm -qp --queryformat %{NAME} 'bcm-bt-firmware-0.21rc3-1.2.Nemo.Adaptation.N900.noarch.rpm'":  at /usr/share/perl5/Alien/Package.pm line 489.
No idea why I get these errors.

Short answer: Nemo kernel is the default one right now because I can't fully automate installation of the patched kernel compiled by unknown.obvious yet.
It will continue if you just exit from this shell. But you need to fix dpkg state for the script to continue if the converted deb had broken it. That's the purpose of dropping to shell, actually. I'll add a message, thanks for reporting. Also, I'll change the default kernel option.

To get GSM working you need ofono, but I didn't test it myself. If you are lucky, empathy + telepathy-ring will work with it. Actually, we need someone to test it on 12.04
