0xFFFF has also a dump function which I never used. I tried today and getting an error.

File initfs_tmp is empty, removing it.

And later....

Error: Cannot open image file initfs_tmp: No such file

But I don't know if this is a problem or not. Maybe someone has some more experience or sees the same error message.

Edit: The N900 has no initfs, Pali made a patch that a skipped file does not throw an error.


Here is what I did.

Activate these repos:

Code:
deb http://maemo.muarf.org/apt-mirror/mirror/downloads.maemo.nokia.com/fremantle/ssu/mr0 ./
deb http://repository.maemo.org/extras-testing/ fremantle free non-free
Code:
apt-get install mtd-utils
apt-get install 0xFFFF
umount /home/user/MyDocs
cd /media/mmc1/
0xFFFF -E dump.fiasco
mount -t vfat /dev/mmcblk0p1 /home/user/MyDocs/
