do you think I could install it on a 1GB card and then copy the contents to this 16GB card that was already partitioned by Nitdroid installer? I don't, but it's the only way out I see for this.

Could I wait until tomorrow? NO.
Well, I tried this without success, of course. I succeded in installing Nitdroid to the 1GB card at first try (LOL). I see the Nitdroid item. It shows several lines of output, and something fails. Once it output a fullscreen terminal-like message stating that it couldn't mount the device (that's what I remember). Maybe I could touch here and there on some relevant files and convert an installation of Nitdroid on 1GB to a 16GB one.
This is impossible with my knowledge by now.
Thanks for all. It had to be the card as I was sure mrbilli and others were right in their instructions. Sorry for making dirty this thread from the start...
EDIT: I entered Android in the 1 GB SDcard and configured some settings. Then I rebooted to Maemo. Then I copied all the files from the 1GB to the 16GB. Rebooted and initiated Nitdroid but could only get the Android logo and some blinking on it. I thought I made it. This a continuous "I feel lucky" while I'm hitting my head to a hard wall. I give up.

Damn it! Nope, it does not work. I'll be courageous here: do you think I could install it on a 1GB card and then copy the contents to this 16GB card that was already partitioned by Nitdroid installer?....

I've seen in this forum. too much people are facing problems while installing nitdroid in their NOKIA N900.
So i have decided to post a CLEAN and Easiest way to install Nitdroid without any error.
So here we start
(installing on external mmc)
1. Download and install the latest NITDROID INSTALLER
http://downloads.nitdroid.com/nitins....2.7_armel.deb
downloading in root directory is recommend!
how to install
if your facing profile while installing .i.e missing filesCode:open Xterminal type Sudo gainroot cd MyDocs dpkg -i NAME OF UR FILE .deb
then simply use this command
apt-get -f install
thats it .. you will able to install NITDROID INSTALLER AUTOMATICALY
2. Create a text file using ur computer of N900 named
"nitdroid.manifest" and paste this code into that file
make sure to remove .txt extention and move it to your root directory of Nokia N900Code:# # Manifest file for NITDroid # # Root filesystem tar balls rootfs file:///home/user/MyDocs/N12_UMay.tar.bz2 # Deb packages package file:///home/user/MyDocs/nitdroid-kernel-2.6.28-07_rc3_armel.deb # End.
3. Download N12 UMAY file and NITdroid kernel
N12 Umay Android
http://downloads.nitdroid.com/e-yes/N12_UMay.tar.bz2
Nitdroid Kernel
http://downloads.nitdroid.com/e-yes/..._rc3_armel.deb
4. Copy Both Files to root directory and .nitdroid folder located in root directory of n900. using via computer or FILEBOX (recommend) i.e /home/users/MyDocs/.nitdroid
5. Now open Xterminal
6. Be patients and wait for the installing and wait until it donesCode:root nitdroid file:///home/user/MyDocs/nitdroid.manifest and type YES in capital letters
7. Rebot with open keyboard slide and press 2
8. now wait until the Android Logo loads. It takes time to load 1st time
9. Skip the login for gmail for 1st time and HERE IT GOES
ENJOY !!!
