S_Paul:

I don't think it is wise to update the system to Squeeze. It seems that only Lenny works properly.

I think I should make a wiki page explaining how to copy data from an image to a partition. But if you can do that, simply edit "/home/user/.chroot" and set IMGFILE to your partition (/dev/mmcblk0p3 or whatever).

S_Paul: I'm very very focused on getting Easy Debian working for the N900.

I understand your problem now... You can't just start LXDE, you have to kill the Hildon desktop first, my script (in the switch-lxde package) should do that for you. Did you install that package yet?

S_Paul: The central problem seems to be that your chroot isn't starting correctly. Make sure your /home/user/.chroot file has the line, "IMGFILE=/dev/mmcblk0p2" (also comment out the other IMGFILE lines by putting # at the beginning) so that the chroot starts correctly...

I just don't get it, you say you can chroot into that partiton, yet it says that the partiton is not valid...
