Sorry man, did you read the first post? Seriously I dont mean to shrug off the blame, but I said very clearly this may hose your system. It says testing.
Also you said "I got the bootmenu (like always)"
Was bootmenu already installed? Were you booted to flash when you installed it? What was on the SD card to begin with. It was supposed to wipe out the SD card, was that unclear to you?
Did it corrupt your flash install?
I read the first post. I understood the dangers, just complaining for the sake of complaining.
Had bootmenu installed previously, does not look like anything changed there. The flash install looks ok now that I've had time to really look at it. I think instead of reflashing, I'll just reformat my MMC2 and take it from there. No biggie, I was having issues with Claws mail's data folder not showing up on MMC2 anyway. eh...
(A) Just letting you know that it installed fine, first time. I don't know if it matters, but I did already have fanoush's boot menu. It left the boot menu the way it was, with the default and timing the way I had set it before, too. Great job. Thanks. It sure was painless and easy.
(B) Penguinbait, I was going to edit "my" thread on cloning (see my signature) to suggest people head here for your debs instead. But I see some people have had problems and you consider it to be still in a "testing" state. Let us know when you feel it is beyond testing stage and I'll start re-directing users.

Thanks, I still think your post is uesfull, this may not work immediately on the next version of OS. Its nice to have options..
What Nokia device did you succeed on, and what size SD card?
Hi,
I'd really like to try this, because I never managed to partition my SD manually. Installing the deb just doesn't work for me either.
I installed the package and this is what the log stated. Is local.sh the problem file? IŽd appreciate some help.

You would need to remove KDE before installing. However the install process once complete is very simple to install KDEv2 without the deb..
