so enter:

a) mount the partition

mount /dev/mmcblk1p2 /and

b) Copy android system files over to /home

Code:

cp -rp /and/* /home

c) edit the boot file

Code:

leafpad /etc/multiboot.d/11 (then tap the tab button, ur .item file will show hit enter to open in leafpad)

d) edit ur .item file to look like this
ITEM_NAME="NITdroid on MMCp2 - 2.6.28.NIT.05"
ITEM_KERNEL=2.6.28.NIT.05
ITEM_MODULES=ext3 fat vfat
ITEM_DEVICE=${INT_CARD}p2
ITEM_FSTYPE=ext3
ITEM_FSOPTIONS=rw,noatime,errors=remount-ro,commit=3
EOF

mine looks like this and doesnt boot into android without the memory card,whats wrong??

What is the error ur coming up with, please specify. And be sure that u copied nitdroid's files in /hom.
EDIT: sorry i missunderstood ur post, just woke up from ma bed.

ur nitdroid will need an mmc to boot, anything in the microsd slot will work even empty damaged worn out mmcs just plug in anything, BUT after nitdroid is boooted up take out ur mmc and check if it's still on

Yes I tried that last week, but dunno how things got screwed up

. I started changing my ITEM_DEVICE: to various partitions

, and ended up reflashing my phone

.
Anyway, thx for sharing!

Sorry if I make questions looking silly.
1) Nitdroid runs as a dual boot with Maemo or it can completely replacce Maemo?
2) Is the phone working (calls, sms, mms).
3) Is possible to send and receive mails?
4) Is it possible to have flash 10.1?

@ammyt :

If i understand correctly the mmc is formatted in certain format right?
So after using your method can i use the mmc to store the debian/ubuntu/fedora/archlinux OS images (which is in .ext2 format)?

I want to be able to mount those images from mmc as well..
