Hmm
0.0.6 Running good
Turn off the N900 running NiTDriod, power on with keyboard closed, getting to the Multiboot menu? Ain't it supposed to just boot Maemo if keyboard is closed?
No way to select Maemo default (just kernels I dont have) press 0 (Tho it does not show 0 as a option) and then it boots Maemo (Sometimes I have to select 0 a few times :S :P), guessing 0 is some default button that always is Maemo?
And if I turn of the phone running Maemo, it then boots Maemo if I power on with keyboard is closed
And ofc Multiboot if keyboard is open, it always shows Multiboot.
Working as intended?
sudo gainroot cp /etc/multiboot.d/examples/Maemo-2.6.28-omap1.item /etc/multiboot.d

Yeah you should reformat and repartition your microsd! That's what I did and now it's working A1
Insert the microsd in N900, go in file manager, press and hold on memory card then select format. Should do the trick for format. You could also plug N900 in mass storage mode to your pc, and your memory card will appear in My Computer.
Obviously, you won't need to reinstall multiboot. Format your microsd, then start the tutorial of this thread at STEP 4: 4. Next up lets partition that MicroSD: first a bit of background info though
Then do all the rest of the process.
Also, what do you get after the 5 minutes rain drop from matric? Shut down? Or you get a black screen with a white cursor on the upper left? If it shuts down, do what I said (reformat then repartition and reinstall from step 4). If, on the other hand, you get a black screen with a white cursor on the upper left, then do what dj_steve said a couple posts before this one:
Try that, and give me news. Good luck! It should work as it worked for me after a bit of pain in the ***

Hey dj_steve !
I finally got it sorted. It worked with these codes you gave to me. But I had to boot Maemo, charge the battery until it is completely full (I used to use a desktop charger, and for this to work I had to charge directly with the nokia charger) then I wrote these codes in X-Term and now it works! Android boots and works very well
Another question, if you don't mind I have a couple problems with multiboot. If my phone is OFF and I plug it to charge, it turns on and multiboot starts. Is this normal? Also, If it's off, and I turn it, I'll get to the multiboot page. That's okay. But then I select my choice, and whichever I choose (maemo or NITDroid), my phone will shut down. I have to boot again, come back to multiboot screen, then select my choice a second time, and now it will boot!
Do you have any idea? If not, I'll stick to what I'vew got working now, it's so great !!!
