Running Meego Handset in an N900 chroot with Easy Debian: Part 2

In this post, I show you how to start the Meego Handset 1.1 “desktop” in a Maemo chroot, using Easy Debian and the image file you made using instructions in the last post . DISCLAIMERS: This is a very shaky process. It is in no way ready for use in any way other than “Oh that’s cool!” The animations on the desktop are very slow, and none of the applications seem to work except Fennec thanks to Robin Burchell, the applications all work now .

Running Meego Handset in an N900 chroot with Easy Debian: Part 1

I would like to document my process for getting Meego Handset to run in a Maemo chroot on the N900 using Easy Debian, so you don’t have to multi-boot your phone. But I can’t document everything in one post, and I’m documenting as I go, so this first post will be the just first steps: how to get an Easy Debian compatible image out of the raw Meego images that the Meego project is posting.
