Change *.deb to something else if you have more debs in the same dir.

Try it on the N900, I have not yet got mine in mail so I can't try it out for you yet. If it does not work, try installing easy debian and running it within that.

Copy the file to your memory card (if any), or copy it via network.
does this pack a .deb file? or just unpack? thanx

that particular command with them parameters would unpack the deb,
with other parameters it could repack it
