Nope, I didn't have any such brackets .. After completing step 3, the output shows the old and new partition tables, i checked them and they look fine .. Now the first partition is just 1 MB long, which is of FAT32 FS, and then the second partition takes the rest of the space ..

EDIT: Here is the complete output from my N900 from the beginning (the first unmount command probably didn't work because I had already unmounted the microSD card in the previous xterm session):


Code:
BusyBox v1.10.2 (Debian 3:1.10.2.legal-1osso30+0m5) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

~ $ sudo gainroot
Root shell enabled

OK

Old situation:

For this listing I'll assume that geometry.

This does not matter for LILO, but the DOS MBR will not boot this disk.

Reboot your system now, before using mkfs

If you created or changed a DOS partition, /dev/foo7, say, then use dd(1)
to zero the first 512 bytes:  dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/foo7 bs=512 count=1
(See fdisk(8).)

Firstly a big thanks to everyone who has contributed to this so far!

I've followed the excellent instructions on the wiki and had NITDroid running in no time at all. Not sure however what I've done wrong but although I can boot into Android with no issues and save various settings settings (ie wifi password, market details etc.) I can't launch any applications (theY crash straight after launching) or download anything from the market - it just gets stuck on prepping to download.

Could this be a partitioning issue? I'm using a 2gb card at the mo with 1mb set to fat the rest to ext3...

if you read the above you see the error :

Code:
Re-reading the partition table ...
BLKRRPART: Device or resource busy
The command to re-read the partition table failed
Reboot your system now, before using mkfs
try rebooting and then doing
Code:
ls /dev/mmcblk1*
it should show both p1 and p2

just experiment with partition sizes. maybe try 512mb fat32 and rest ext3 then your absolutly certainly off 2gb limit

Okay, so after rebooting, do I repeat the entire partition procedure from step 1, or do I just continue from where I experienced the problem (from second command in step 5 and onwards) .. ?

provided the ls command shows both mmcblk1p1 and mmcblk1p2 just continue with formatting then install

OK with DJ steve's massive help I have got this running. Doesn't want to allow me to add a wireless network though?

hi all

I encountered an issue when I was booting Nitdroid:

Buffer I/O error at mmcblk0p2
Lost page write I/O error at mmcblk0p2

Nitdroid did not manage to boot and reset itself to multi boot menu. Anyone know what's the issue?
