How to uninstall NITDROID and multiboot ... - maemo.org

Hello guys !
The first thing I want to say is that I have installed Nitdroid without memory card and using it without it! That's why I am posting a new thread.
So I have installed it with this method:

My question is how to uninstall Nitdroid, and after that multiboot? I do not want to make a reflash, because I have so many apps installed and too much info and I have to backup everything first after that moving it again on the device and installing again apps.
I saw many threads about uninstalling Nitdroid but all o fthe methods were for those who installed it on a memory card... HELP please.

FOLLOW THIS STEPS:

Do you have it installed in the eMMC?

Code:

mount -o bind /home/user /and && nitdroid-uninstaller
apt-get remove nitdroid-kernel
umount /and && rm -r /and
apt-get remove multiboot*
apt-get remove nitdroid*

I done this :

Code:

mount -o bind /home/user /and && nitdroid-uninstaller
apt-get remove nitdroid-kernel

and everything was OK except that I saw a message that says Canno remove multiboot because multiboot is not empty

After that i wrote this:

Code:

umount /and && rm -r /and

and received
rm: cannot remove '/and/MyDocs': Device or resource busy
rm: cannot remove '/and': Device or resource busy

any more inputs on how to uninstall nitdroid and multiboot from the eMMC?

I am stuck too... Because I replaced multiboot by U-boot for backupmenu.
And I am left with "nitdroid-kernel" I cannot uninstall cleanly.

For information, I removed lines checking "/and" mount point from /var/lib/dpkg/info/nitdroid-kernel-2.6.28-06.prerm
to get "apt-get remove --purge nitdroid-kernel-2.6.28-06" succeed
