Hello everyone!

I've had quite many problems with my n810 last few days. To cut it short - I decided to start over. I would like a clean install.

The first problem is - how to achieve that?

In an effort to extend the space for apps, I cloned the OS to internal memory card. Since then I had an option to choose from where I wish to boot (initfs if I am not mistaken, enables that).

I heard that it is possible to simply extend the boot partition to internal memory card, at least for 770.

So my idea now is to erase everything from flash memory and internal memory card and install the oS once again on the falsh memory, then extend it to internal memory card.

I would appreciate any help regarding that - if it is even possible and how to do it.

Thanks

P.S. Note, that I am not a linux guru ...

Don't. It's unstable and way less effective than just booting straight from SD.

First, start over, then, second, boot from SD.
