  1. Download lastest Nitdroid Installer (http://downloads.nitdroid.com/nitins....2.7_armel.deb) and install it
    If you use dpkg -i to install and you not have an older version (i.e. 0.2.6) already installed, you should manage by hand all dependecies (i.e. multiboot, rootsh, ...etc)
  2. Create on folder /home/user/MyDocs/ a text file named "nitdroid.manifest" and copy into it this text:
    Code:
    #
    # Manifest file for NITDroid
    #
    
    # Root filesystem tar balls
    rootfs		http://downloads.nitdroid.com/e-yes/N12_UMay.tar.bz2		a5846b46bce11bebbe3d3b0dab1663d6
    
    # Deb packages
    package		http://downloads.nitdroid.com/e-yes/nitdroid-kernel-2.6.28-07_rc3_armel.deb		7a81c6815ba8748e5bd42e03ddd699cb
    
    # End.
  3. Open an xterm console and type nitdroid file:///home/user/MyDocs/nitdroid.manifest to start installation process
  4. Answering YES (upper case) to the question appeared and wait for the Nitdroid N11 Vostok download and then installation process

You could just use this tutorial.
http://wiki.maemo.org/Nitdroid_easy_install_on_EMMC

At installing the N11 just change everything that says N11 to N12. Worked for me
Awesome that SMS is working now, accelerometer is also working partialy. Holding the device upside down is the center.

Downloading is hell-slow. 30 kb/s

I don't get it... What does Market Out of the Box mean when it's not even in the menu?
I have successfully overwritten 2.2.1/0.0.9 with N12, and all my apps and settings are there. Just not Market... Should I reset all of it to get Market or is it something else?

It is probably only a network error.

If Nitroid installer fails to download the files it emits error "bailing out"

One quick question, In the following can you redirect


# Deb packages
package http://downloads.nitdroid.com/e-yes/..._rc3_armel.deb 7a81c6815ba8748e5bd42e03ddd699cb

also to refer to a local file by specifying the file path??

(say if I already downloaded the file on a faster connection)

Hi. For those who downloaded the files nitdroid and N12_UMay.tar.bz2 - kernel-2.6.28-07_rc3_armel.deb in a PC and copied to the N900 can do the following:

Modify the nitdroid.manifest with the following contents:

Code:
# Root filesystem tar balls
rootfs file:///home/user/MyDocs/N12_UMay.tar.bz2 a5846b46bce11bebbe3d3b0dab1663d6

# Deb packages
package file:///home/user/MyDocs/nitdroid-kernel-2.6.28-07_rc3_armel.deb 7a81c6815ba8748e5bd42e03ddd699cb

# End.
and then use the following command:

nitdroid file:///home/user/MyDocs/nitdroid.manifest

and type YES.

Greetings.

Same problem.
It bails after formatting.
Downloading nitdroid.manifest....Failure. Bailing out.
I have tried on 3 different networks,same problem.
transfered all files using WinSCP.
I also tried the manual method from the Wiki.
Wont go any further after running command: bzip2 -d N12_UMay.tar.bz2
I also tried the revised .manifest by german.cadenas
Still no joy.
Any ideas?

Edit: I managed to get it working. When the bzip2 command hangs i just waited a little longer and it unpacked.

HELP NEEDED!

I installed the nitdroid to a new partition on emmc without problem.
But after it boot into nitdroid, I cannot find sd card or mydocs folder for some reason. Because of this, many applications like camera and music player won't work properly. they shows " the phone does not have a sd card inserted" message everytime.

Could someone let me know how to solve this issue? thanks.
