Success!!!! Thanks Penguinbait! I proceeded with using the files I downloaded last night by transfering the .deb files from my lap top to my Nokia n800. As I said in my previous post, I had downloaded the tar file late last night directly to my Nokia. When I transfered the .deb files the names got changed a bit at the end of the name, but that apparently didn't matter. File manager was giving me some weird detail that wasn't accurate during the install, but again that didn't end up mattering. I haven't tried MicroB yet, but I do notice that in KDE there are occasional white g letters that look like the screen shot of the google page I think posted earlier in this thread where the top of the g is missing. But overall it looks fine.
I had no hickups with the install. I simply got the files onto the internal card without a special folder. I'm using a Transcend 8 GB SDHC interal card. I feel like if I can do this install anyone can. You just need to pay attention to the details involved. But wow, I'd say the time spent is totally worth it. Now to learn how to use it.

Congrats, I am glad you decided to take the plunge.
Give me a couple weeks, but give me your requests and I will see what I can do. PM me
This is where some support from Nokia could be very timely IMHO. This is a lot of work for one guy me thinks. I've been wondering why Nokia didn't initiate this project and make it their operating system, but then I don't know how such things work. Meanwhile PB has plenty to do. I sent you some cash via Paypal PB.
