Frequent errors
Guru Meditation:

If u have NITDroid that ends in .06 and facing this error, delete the words highlighted in underlined from your multiboot file:

Root filesystem mmcblk0p5 NOT available! Guru Meditation #000000025.62017712 Hit any key to panic! 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

If you didn't find maemo in multiboot:

Type 0 to boot stock kernel.

Some things you'll notice after installing it on the internal memory

 * 1) Runs much faster, even faster than a class 8 card.
 * 2) The battery doesn't drain as fast as with microsd. Had it off charger all day playing games and surfing the Internet and got it to only use 40% of the battery.
 * 3) Pretty good given now you can use it without it draining the battery!

FIXES
APP Market Fix:

Open the 'Market' app (from the Home screen or app launcher)

Leaving the Market app running, return to the Home screen and open the 'Settings' app again

Within Settings select 'Applications' > 'Manage applictions' > 'Running' (from Tab at top)

Scroll to select the 'Market' app > press the 'Clear Cache' button > then press the 'Force Stop' button (Do not press the 'Clear Data' button)

Press the back button (to go back to the list of running apps)

Scroll to select 'Google Services Framework' > press the 'Clear Data' button > 'OK' (to confirm) > then press the 'Force Stop' button

Return to the Home screen

Launch the 'Market' app again, which will give an error "Attention an error has occurred..." > 'OK' button

Shutdown by holding power button > 'Power Off' > 'OK'

Restart, wait for wi-fi to reconnect, open 'Market' again (You may have to reboot several times and check 'Market')

The opening 'Market' screen should no longer be blank, and many more apps (free & paid) should now be available

(Although apps can be downloaded, some may still fail to install or run properly)

WIFI Fix:(rare cases)

Change the encryption from WPA2 to WPA from your Wireless Access Point. This is a compatibility issue hopefully gonna be fixed in later releases.

Airplane Mode Fix:

For ppl who enabled airplane mode, fixes that are in here were tried by me:

1. enable the widget power control and turn airplane mode off

2. if this didn't work disable ur pin code in maemo

3. menu>devtools>terminal emulator

su

rr

4. the technical solution:

cd /and/data

rm -rf *

mkdir logs

chmod 777 logs

cd /

umount /and

Google account sign-in:

Skip google sign-up in the first tutorial instead, sign up/in google once in NITDroid.

Overclocking
1. You can download ready GUI's from the market for OCing

2. Or use one of these profiles:
