Dual booting on my phone

Hi Guys,
Finally i was able to install NITDroid android port to N900.
Been trying for over 2 months now, the problem was with my SD card.

Anybody wanting to try it out ( and having a N900 is a must :) ), can go to the link given below.

But having a wifi connection is a must, Data downloaded is over 100 MB.
Or there is another way.

Can download the required files on your PC.
Then on your "N900" open the terminal. Goto /home/user/MyDocs
Make folder named .nitdroid
paste all the files downloaded on the pc to this folder.

Then start the nitdroid installer, it will just pick up the files from the newly created folder.
Neat isn't it :)

Having a phone which dual boots is a dream come true, one of my ultimate tech fantasies.
Currently i have both Maemo 5 and NITDroid on my phone, and am waiting for meego community build for N900 to comes out sometime in october, so that i can triple boot and attain Moksha :)

NOTE: If anybody is facing problem post install in getting the NITDroid to work, try using some other SD Card, it might just work for you.
