Do you mind explaining step 3?

I have an 8gb card, so I should use 6100... but do I put in all the , and whatnot?

I'd really appreciate instructions on what to type into xterminal and be done with it =)

Thanks!

That was stated in the first post!

Exit x-terminal, reboot, and choose normal startup
Then go here:

and follow steps 1 through 5

Then in x-terminal type: nitdroid

There you go

You can only get a limited amount of apps at the moment, think its something at googles end! No phone no mic and no dedicated menu button yet. But it looks great!

Thanks! in the future, if I don't want nitdroid anymore how to get rid of it and dual boot?

do I just format sd or is there a different way to get rid of dualboot?

Thanks!

Step 1: Partitioning
followed this
sudo gainroot

umount /dev/mmcblk1p1

sfdisk -uM /dev/mmcblk1 << EOF,2100MB,C,,L,,,,EOF

sfdisk:bad input

what am i doing wrong?

got a 4gig card btw

heres what xterm said

BusyBox v1.10.2 (Debian 3:1.10.2.legal-1osso30+0m5) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

/home/user # umount /dev/mmcblk1p1
/home/user # sfdisk -uM /dev/mmcblk1 << EOF
> ,2100 MB,C
> ,,L
> ,,
> ,,
> EOF
Checking that no-one is using this disk right now ...
OK

Old situation:
Units = mebibytes of 1048576 bytes, blocks of 1024 bytes, counting from 0

Well, I installed Nitdroid the other day using the Autoinstaller and it is not very difficult.

Here is the step by step instruction.

It is recommended that you disable the 'extra-devel' in maemo, as the installer from that repo has errors. For more info visit this thread.

Use the autoinstaller and it will partition for you automatically.
