So my error seems to be in that I don't have this thing called mmcblk1p2

if i run df -h I get this output (Looks aweful when posted, hope it's readable)

I went into Mint Linux to look at the SD Card and I had a FAT32 and a EXT3 partition on it, but I aint got that mmcblk1p2 that the failing command gets stuck on.

Seems I still messed up the partition part somehow? it would seem I can't read / does not discover my ext3 partition?

Isn't there any kind of task switcher in nitdroid? And should up arrow work?

dj_steve | # 457 | 2010-07-10, 09:46 | Report

sounds like the ext3 hjasnt been created, i would try partitioning again. and up arrow should indeed work unless they removed it in froyo lol.

Should the SD Card be totally unpartitioned when used in the N900 ? I mean, should I go into Mint Linux and make all the space unlocated so there are no partiotions on it when I start?

dj_steve | # 459 | 2010-07-10, 09:54 | Report

should not matter, you could even partition on mint itself and format

belaial | # 460 | 2010-07-10, 10:11 | Report

hmm, I seem to get some errors in creating the ext3 partition.

And Mint wont allow a bigger resolution.... argh! So can't see if there are more error info down there....

Need to cool my head with some Futurama and milk

*Back and EDIT*

I have no clue what is going on, I have tried all things I can imagine now, if I make 2 fat32 ones, they both work fine, but however I try, I can't create a ext3 one, it always comes up with error messages in Mint Linux, Card is brand new, just got it yesterday, formated the whole card to fat32, no errors so the card seems just fine.

Any tip at all whan I can try?
