when installing gingerbread what should i do in this step?
what should i replace etc with?
when its says to press tab it says to press it in xterm instead of pressing enter?
9. On Xterm:
Code:
leafpad /etc/multiboot.d/1 (then press tab on your screen
i know this are stupid questions but i dont want to do any mistakes..
just type:
leafpad /etc/multiboot.d/1 then at your touchscreen press tab button on the bottom of xterm. Now where did I actually wrote that you will have to replace etc?
Nowhere, i just thought the etc was to replace something
sorry
Now, it opened, i dont have a memory card, so am i supposed to replace ITEM_DEVICE:${INT_CARD}p2 for ITEM_DEVICE:mmcblk0p2 in the line where it says ITEM_DEVICE?
I ask this cause in the tutorial doesnt say to replace, just says to look so it should appear ITEM_DEVICE:mmcblk0p2 but it appears ITEM_DEVICE:${INT_CARD}p2 instead.
Thanks
EDIT: ok, i did replace but i cant save, it says that it wasnt possible to open archives for writing whenever i try to save.

Okay so I have been looking for some updates for Nitdroid and I found the following files here. http://downloads.nitdroid.com/e-yes/ gingerbread_update1.tar.bz2
And gingerbread_update2.tar.bz2
As well as some other files such as gingerbread_superuser.tar.bz2
And also camera.tar.gz.
How do I install these updates, I mean I know I need to extract but to where?
I am guessing the same place where I installed Nitdroid but will, I have to mount /home /and again and cd into the directory, thanks

It is all explained in the first page in the part where it says interesting stuff
I was right you do have to mount /home /and.
Anyway just to reiterate if anyone is wondering how to install an update or modification to the Android core.
Make sure the packages are in MyDocs and do the following
Code:
root
cd /home/user/MyDocs
bzip2 -d nameofpackage.tar.bz2
cd /home
mkdir /and
cd /
mount /home /and
cd /and
tar xvf /home/user/MyDocs/nameofpackage.tar
-optionalTo save times whilst I am still in root, I type reboot and enter to save time
everything works fine but cant make or receive phone calls.
I just installed Gingerbread and it did not solve world hunger, cure cancer, bring world peace, and restore order to the universe.....................CAN YOU HELP ME!!!!!!!
