Per Steve's instructions on first post:
What do I do?
Thanks!

I need wifi working as I use N900 without sim card...
Otherwise, this build looks great!

This hasn't nothing to do with the phone, but your wireless router.
If you have MAC based filtering on, which I doubt you do, then you need to turn it off.

I can't see some programs in the market eg : operamini

There's something wrong with the device signature ?

Another little glitch is the charging via usb: it stop when the device goes in standby.

Thanks for your help...

Don't think I have MAC filtering on...fyi, wifi worked for me in the previous build...

I do notice problem in Settings, Airplane mode got selected, disabling connections...when I try to deselect this mode ie, click on checkbox to get rid of the green checkmark, nothing happens, can't seem t get out of this mode.... :confused:

Any sugestions?

Any luck with step 5?
Entered: umount /dev/mmcblk1p1 //Error received "unmount:cannot unmount /dev/mmcblk1p1: invalid argument.

I ignored error and entered next code:

Anyone, please advise. Thanks.

Blues

you disable this via your router's config webpage (usually 192.168.x.x), it has nothing to do with your n900.

umount /dev/mmcblk1 (without p1 at the end) beacause mmcblk1p1 is the dos partition, mmcblk1p2 is the ext3 partition and mmcblk1 is the sd card (you can't unmount a partition!) lol

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 & Multiboot Development And Announcement Thread
 
Guys,
I got it all working and so happy, pretty straight forth really.
Multiboot loads menu when keyboard out. The first option boots Maemo, as does keyboard in, second option which lists as power kernel just blinks and back to Multiboot menu as does NIT options 3 & 4. NITDroid option 5 boots Android as it should. I have tried to reinstall the power kernel though no change.
I did slightly change things as I wanted these files in a folder all together, tidier. Would this still work or my issue?

Code:
cd /home/user/MyDocs/NITDroid
wget http://downloads.nitdroid.com/Jay-c/...power37.tar.gz
cd /
tar xzvf /home/user/MyDocs/NITDroid/multiboot-power37.tar.gzcd /home/user/MyDocs/NITDroid
wget http://downloads.nitdroid.com/Jay-c/...power37.tar.gz
cd /
tar xzvf /home/user/MyDocs/NITDroid/multiboot-power37.tar.gz

Also, have I done something wrong and hence why NITDroid lists as options 3, 4 & 5 though only 5 loads and can I remove the non working options 3 & 4?

Hmmm,
Odd that one. How do you get the code to show in the box, formatted etc?
Anyway, did it incorrectly and tried to edit and ended up duplicating the post, sorry.

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 & Multiboot Development And Announcement Thread
 
?? You should only have two options on the boot menu if you are using multiboot 2.5 like the tutorial states..
1. Maemo
2. NITDroid

check your rootfs. If 100% used the rootfs got mounted when you tried to mount mmcblk1p2 and thats why you have issues. Just do this in xterm and that should fix it (if it's rootfs related).

sudo gainroot 'enter'
cd /and 'enter'
rm -rf * 'enter'

Then do the NITdroid install again from step 6.

Well that would be great though I don't, I am sure it is error on my behalf, what and where?

Well not understanding what is happening, where and why, I will list what I know. If you could assist and direct my to fix the errors, That would be great.
Under /boot I have the following files:
multiboot (folder)
System.map-2.6.28.NIT.02
System.map-2.6.28.NIT.03

vmlinuz-2.6.28-omap1
vmlinuz-2.6.28-NIT.02
vmlinuz-2.6.28-NIT.03


Under /boot/multiboot I have the following files:
vmlinuz-2.6.28-omap1
vmlinuz-2.6.28-NIT.05

Under /etc/multiboot.d I have the following files:
Maemo-2.6.28-omap1.item
Maemo-2.6.28.1-Opower37.item
NITdroid-2.6.28.NIT.02.item
NITdroid-2.6.28.NIT.03.item

NITdroid-2.6.28.NIT.05.item

I think the boot menu list what is shown in /etc/multiboot.d folder?

Currently as it stands the Power Kernel doesn't load from boot menu. As I asked above, any assistance would be great mate, way over my head. Are the files listed in red not required and can i erase them? Further Can I change the name of the files in the /etc/multiboot.d folder and will that change how they display in the boot menu without any knock on effects?

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 & Multiboot Development And Announcement Thread
 
I not too good with this stuff either, but I'm 95% sure you must complete these steps (after downloading required files in step 1):

cd /home/user
wget http://downloads.nitdroid.com/Jay-c/remove-multiboot-0.1.x.tar.gz

Then run this as root On the device:

Code:

    cd /home/user
    tar xzvf remove-multiboot-0.1.x.tar.gz
    chmod +x multiboot-remove
    ./multiboot-remove
    rm multiboot-remove
    rm remove-multiboot-0.1.x.tar.gz

Also, if you don't use Titans power37 kernel, you can manually delete the files:

Code:

    rm /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.28.10power37
    rm -r /lib/modules/2.6.28.10power37

3. Now lets get down to actually installing things starting with Multiboot:

Code:

dpkg -i /home/user/MyDocs/multiboot-extras_0.1_armel.deb
dpkg -i /home/user/MyDocs/multiboot_0.2.5_armel.deb

Thats the new Multiboot installed

EDIT: I really don't know much else about this sorry, I just followed the steps, except the partitioning part, it all worked, and it removed the .item files from previous multiboot X)

sfdisk -uM /dev/mmcblk1 << EOF
,<SIZE>,C
,,L
,,
,,
EOF

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 & Multiboot Development And Announcement Thread
 
You have to use only 6100, not 6100/1900 for <SIZE>

Mate,
Assuming you are formatting an 8gb SD card, just type this:

umount /dev/mmcblk1p1
sfdisk -uM /dev/mmcblk1 << EOF
,6100,C
,,L
,,
,,
EOF

:)

dj_steve 2010-07-24 10:10

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 & Multiboot Development And Announcement Thread
 
nope remove the p1 (sfdisk -uM /dev/mmcblk1 << EOF)
