MeeGo CE is a port of real MeeGo and not a Maemo 6.0 port so it is rpm's based.

Where is the problem ?
Even if N900 is born with an linux deb based os, if you totally replace the original OS with some different OS you can do want you want

MeeGo CE is an optimized version of N900's MeeGo and N900's MeeGo is simple MeeGo's source code (arm version) compiled and packaged for N900.
MeeGo has been always (since its birth more than one year ago) rpm based
N9 not uses the public meego (for now) but it uses a Nokia's specific OS (Maemo 6.0) made API compatible with MeeGo and rebranded MeeGo Harmattan

Ok, was going to try installing Meego this evening, and strumbled across what is probably a probem with an obvious fix, but I cannot find it.
I have a 32gb microsd card, and I would like to chuck Meego on there, and keep the rest of the space as FAT, which would be accessible to both Maemo and Meego . The issue I have is that Maemo just reports the MicroSD as corrupted and not usable.
come on then guys, what's the fix please.
Thanks

It is the OS distribution that is deb's or rpm's based.
MeeGo is rpm's based
Maemo is deb's based
Harmattan is Maemo 6.0 partially modified to be compatible with MeeGo and so it is deb's based yet.
MeeGo CE is a port of real MeeGo and not a Maemo 6.0 port so it is rpm's based.
