flash nokia n9 in 2021 maemo leste
Where can I find a step-by-step guide on maemo leste firmware on nokia n9 up-to-date for 2021?
Hello community! May I ask for help in writing a step-by-step instruction for the maemo leste firmware method on nokia n9? My search for answers to the questions was unsuccessful - I'm at a dead end! Here are a number of questions that I don't understand as a beginner: 1. Do you need to flash the native firmware or is it enough to flash zImage_2.6.32.54-openmode_l2fix? 2. What to sew first openmode or ubiboot? 3. Options for partitioning sfdisk? MOSLO? GParted? How to do it? 4. What is preinits.tar? What is this archive for? And the last one to take the image itself here - https://maedevu.maemo.org/images/n9/20190315/? And which maemo-leste-1.0-armhf-n9-20190315.img.xz or maemo-leste-1.0-armhf-n9-20190315.tar.gz? The instructions at https://leste.maemo.org/Nokia_N9 are not meant for beginners. I would really appreciate your help! |

Hi,
You will need native firmware to carry out back to back flashing as here to avoid "aegis issues": https://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=89345 Hopefully you are going to use Linux to re-partition, but suggest look at these resources: https://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=91914 http://www.thegadgetfreak.net/2012/0...ioning-n9.html Getting partitioning sorted is probably the hardest if unfamiliar as after that just following commands upon device: https://leste.maemo.org/Nokia_N9 Some of links now outdated and you may need to look at Paragraph 6.4.1 here if you end up in MALF state with device: http://wiki.maemo.org/N9QTweak or https://wiki.maemo.org/N9/N950_Rescue_CD This user wanted to install Maemo Leste upon N9 16GB in this thread:https://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?...0&postcount=42 |

Hi!
Thank you for your responsiveness! It's a pity, but translating the page does not solve the problem of not knowing the language. Of course, I will be able to advance in my very modest knowledge, but I am afraid that some things will be misinterpreted and this will lead me to irreparable mistakes. It was foolish to hope to see a simple list of actions and commands without getting into the essence. It is necessary to delve into in order to come to an understanding, to comprehend each step. Thanks for the direction indicated! |

Is your N9 16 or 64GB? Unfortunately Linux is my weakest OS, but if I get around to partitioning N9 I will post details here. My only experience of Multi-boot to date is installing Sailfish OS upon N9.

https://dt.iki.fi/nokia-n9-alternative-os Partitioned N9 16GB upon Ubuntu 20.04.2 using fdisk with results as below. Resource above slightly confusing but only requires two lines to partition being:- Code:
# /sbin/sfdisk --no-reread /dev/mmcblk0 -N1 Code:
/dev/mmcblk0p1 :16 128000 c Code:
# /sbin/sfdisk --no-reread /dev/mmcblk0 -N4 Code:
/dev/mmcblk0p4 :128016 160496 L Code:
# /sbin/sfdisk -l /dev/mmcblk0 |
