Getting PM'd for such stupid questions, (sorry I am forced to say it this time). I updated the first post, just issue the commads as written there and you (everybody) will be fine. AND I REPEAT, DO NOT RUN THE INSTALLER FOR NITDROID (NITDROID INSTALL) ICON IN THE APLICATION MENU, JUST DOWNLOAD IT VIA XTERM, THEN DO AS WRITTEN.

Finally we can play Angry bird season

Ha Ha Ha

I followed all the instructions for installing gingerbread to the emmc(internal storage) in the n900 and the boot menu kept stalling and I couldn't select the second option to boot andriod and booting maemo failed, I suspect the power kernal again is causing issues

Anyway the only way I could fix this was going to mcdonalds lol as my cell phone provider is my only access online and I used there wifi but they have a download restriction so after every 12 mb of data downloaded the connection brakes so, I used Firefox and the flash got addon and used wget using the flash got link option by right clicking on the link and so even if the connection brakes it just reconnects and carries on downloading the data into the same file.

And the re flash went smoothly suprisingly and was a success and no data corruption
Thanks maccys "a big mac and a flash" lol

OK I think I narrowed my problem down to this line:

/dev/mmcblk0p2 on /home

Could somene a bit more learned in linux please confirm that this is not the n900s own internal storage before I attempt to unmount this. Also, will the command "unmount /dev/mmcblk0p2 " do the trick?

The full text of the line as it appears when the mount command is entered is:

/dev/mmcblk0p2 on /home type ext3 (rw,noatime,errors=continue,commit=1,data=writebac k)

it's umount not unmount
why do you want to umount internel drive?

I DON'T want to unmount the internal drive- That's why I want to check that before I go ahead. I posted up a page or 2 back that somehow I must have mounted something I wasn't supposed to when copying from my sd card to internal emmc. I think that is why my /home says it is full on DiskUsage app and app manager won't let me update anything, even though when I look in Midnight Commander it says there is space in there. The conclusion I came to was that I left something mounted that was not supposed to be mounted- but I don't have the skills or knowledge to know what- so that is why I am checking.

Any ideas?
