re typing here as no one anszers me -_-"

okay, hello all, i was away for a while and i just installed the earlier NiTDroid build. All i can say is that it was very simple and fast ^^ but i have to say that it is very slow compared to eclair's build =S
and as already mentionned i think we can't mount the eMMC for now... but hey, good point for me as before android wouldn't even recognise it lool

and last thing : is there a way to re-map the keys ? i mean as i've a german keyboard on it, it is "qwertz" and not "qwerty" ... so i'd love to help you with the globalisation of keyboards

That's the keyboard mapping file: http://downloads.nitdroid.com/omap_twl4030keypad.kl . Modify it And just save it in /system/usr/keylayouts on the uSD card. Should be fairly straight forward.

If you don't mind xterm and doing it all on your N900 with one window open in the web browser and another window in xterm and then just copy paste, i would go for this one:

Got to here in those instructions:

mke2fs -j -m0 /dev/mmcblk1p2

Then got this error:

Could not stat /dev/mmcblk1p2

No such file or directory

try this code, it's from another guide on how to partition on N900...

mke2fs -j /dev/mmcblk1p2 -m0

Or just try this link:
http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...postcount=1278
But dont mount the ext3 partition like this guide says, do like the NITdroid install

Or try to redo it the first way

Ok tried this but still failing. I have a brand new 4GB card as well.

Code:
/home/user # umount /dev/mmcblk1p1 
umount: cannot umount /dev/mmcblk1p1: Invalid argument 
/home/user # sfdisk -uM /dev/mmcblk1 << EOF 
> ,< 2100>,C 
> ,,L 
> ,, 
> ,, 
> EOF 
Checking that no-one is using this disk right now ... 
OK 

Disk /dev/mmcblk1: 121008 cylinders, 4 heads, 16 sectors/track 
Old situation: 
Warning: The partition table looks like it was made 
for C/H/S=*/49/48 (instead of 121008/4/16). 
For this listing I'll assume that geometry.

The device apparently does not exist; did you specify it correctly?
