@juiceme Could you please post the command for cpio, as I am not used to that format and do not know which parameters to give for packing (unpacking is easy ).
I had a deeper look into sources this evening, and I was a bit "disappointed" (dont get me wrong!). I thought with G_MOUNTABLE_PARTITIONS we also got configurable Nemo partition. But that is not the case. So I made my own configuration. Not yet tested, as I am on the road without flasher tools, so if you could check that and use that maybe? I think it will work and all changes are based on 05042013 version. So a diff will let you know easily. Of course I do need it only for Nemo. But maybe later I want to move Nit to another real partition. And for Harmattan this maybe could also be usable to have a safe copy (dd p2 to p5) of a bootable Harmattan version for developers/tweakers?
