What's wrong?

Edit:
It's "MyDocs"

Here is how i did it :

(Be sure you have rootsh & easy-chroot)
Everything typed in terminal is blue
- Put the bt5.img anywhere (i did it in /home/user/Mydocs/bt5, so rest of the howto is based on that but can be changed)
- open Terminal
- sudo gainroot
- mkdir /mnt/bt5 (needs to be done only first time to create the folder)
- qchroot /home/user/Mydocs/bt/bt5.img /mnt/bt5/ (when you see root@chroot you are good to go)
- export USER=root
- vncpasswd (Needs to be done once for setting up a password)
- vncserver -geometry 800x470
- startvnc
Now go back to open VNC and leave terminal open in background
In VNC use this settings :
The adress is 127.0.0.1:590x
x Is the number you see when you typed "startvnc" inside BT5. You will see something like this :
"Log file is /home/user/.vnc/Nokia-N900:x.log"
Mine was "Log file is /home/user/.vnc/Nokia-N900:1.log", so i have 127.0.0.1:5901
Enter password you choosed before, log in have fun.
When done and VNC is closed, do this to shutdown BT5:
Go back to opend terminal
- stopvnc
- exit
- qumount /mnt/bt5
- exit
- exit

Hope i did not miss something, will put the link with the img as soon as it is up (bout 1h30 left)
Will be away until tonight, hope it works.

Had some time today and downloaded the img..


/mnt/bt5 gets created in / on the n900 itself? Is that right or should it be in /MyDocs/mnt/bt5?
Dont like the idea it sits in /, wont that take up rootfs space?
