The script doesn't suceed. I've choosed to not download meego image (because I've already placed it in the same directory). I've edited the preinstall kubuntu image name to "precise-preinstalled-mobile-armel+omap.img.gz" (seems that the file has been changed since the 11-07-2011). After a while, the script return:

krutznikov,
you get error(s) somewhere earlier, than the part of the code you quote;
before mounting host OS directories to the /mnt/"arm_guest_dirs"
those "arm_guest_dirs" (dev, proc, sys and others which are not mount points but contain OS) should be created. In the script (of int_ua) they are done here (the lines of the script, where you do not get result indeed):
mount -o loop,offset=$skip -t auto $image_name_raw /media/source || exit 1
cp -a /media/source/* /mnt
umount /media/source
(sure, that the variables are defined before; to run the commands out of the whole script, it is necessary to put values instead)
Check whether the (OS) image you want was decompressed (a big file about 2 Gb) with the same name but no .gz at the end,
then look that that raw image mounted to /media/source
(Running the script, look for error messages earlier than that part of the messages you submitted here.)
Try to put in the row (of the script)
image_name="kubuntu-11.04-preinstalled-desktop-armel+omap.img.gz"
the name of the file, you want to install
(having that file in the same directory, but not a link on that file)

kralde,
I think with that you will have plenty of work,
at least if you do not want to remove completely Maemo.
Maybe with flasher-3.5 you can flash the whole stuff (I did not try so do not advise) but then you do not have Maemo.
Resizing (first) partition and adding new is described in different places in the internet (by the way, that could be done easily running linux on external card, as well as backup-ing ALL the content),
But booting the new system will have problems.
If the kubuntu's uImages supported boot with multiboot (of Maemo), that could be, probably, easily solved, but it is not a case.

Look at this page:
http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/N900/Install/EMMC
that may work (at least with some of images works something similar when copying, or better say 'dd-ing' the whole stuff on SD),
but generally those images designed for different devices, that is why so much mess about all the repartitionings, generating uImage and choosing proper boot method.

Sorry for beeing noob, but I failed to install Ubuntu 11.10 with the newest script. I am using Ubuntu 11.10 x64 and I get this error when the script tries to mount the preinstalled image:
I woud really like to get Ubuntu 11.10 working on my N900.

Code:
panzersajt@panzersajt-HP-Pavilion-dv5-Notebook-PC:/media/32D823E7D823A855/n900/n900_ubuntu$ sudo mount -o loop,offset=512 -t auto ubuntu-11.10-preinstalled-desktop-armel+omap.img /media/source mount: you must specify the filesystem type

PanzerSajt, check first the image you are trying to mount with
sudo fdisk -l -u ubuntu-11.10-preinstalled-desktop-armel+omap.img
it should give 'Start' for the first partition 1, also notice there fs type
I am not quite sure, but maybe you will need to load some modules for that fs type you have in the image (and if the offset is correct -- 512 should be correct for 'Start' from 1-st sector) (maybe it is necessary to load btrfs or ext4 and jb2, like : sudo modprobe btrfs)
