eL.ectron1k,
If you already have stuff on your flash card then use Gparted. You can easily resize partitions and make new ones from empty space. Since ubuntu is stalled, you can try to install debian instead. They are very similar[ubuntu is based on debian], but ubuntu repositories have newer builds. I was somewhat successful following this: https://elektranox.org/website/debian_on_n900.html#nodm guide, but the gnome was unusable because of some bug.

aligatro, are u talking about Easy Debian, or separate system on partiton?
If first, i have it, but it works hard because it's a new process in maemo, not new started from partition.
If second, i'll check it too.
Thx!
P.S.
I have no stuff on SD card, because i bought that just for systems.

If so, Maemo should automatically mount the fat partition. Have you checked in file manager to see if the sd card is there?

Yep
>>Have you checked in file manager to see if the sd card is there?
I wrote by myself /dev/mmcblk1p4 in /etc/fstab and it works, but now carg is damaged.
Trying to use now...
mkfs.vfat /dev/mmcblk1p4
* Made operation with mkfs.vfat, but here is message "The format of your SD card is not supported" <---- Translated from Russian

All you need to do is follow these instructions.
As I said before, unfortunatelly isn't possible use Multiboot to run MeeGo, Maemo and NITDroid together. I can boot in MeeGo, but cannot boot back in Maemo or NITDroid without using Flasher...at the moment.

The main problem after booting in MeeGo is that Multiboot is no more executed! The MeeGo kernel doesn't run it.
