Recapitulating with full path, starting from the root (/), for clarity:
The kernels (only for Harmattan and NITdroid because for Nemo it's different) must be placed into /boot directory.
The Ubiboot files (described above) must be placed into /home/user/MyDocs/boot directory

Thanks for all the help.No need to feel stupid, I have found out that quite a few people have trouble figuring out that. The problem is that when you are running Harmattan you have a different view of the mounted filesystem than when you are running ubiboot. The README document evidently does not make that clear enough.
I hope you managed to do that with the good advice people gave you here...]
For Nemo installation I advise you not to think about it now, but maybe later, after a better understanding of boot of Harmattan/NITdroid.
For NITdroid boot problem: did you put the NITdroid kernel file in the right place?
Did you edited correctly the Ubiboot.conf file?
Did you extracted the NITdroid system files correctly?

So, your device always wakes up to ubiboot when you plug in the wall charger in a powered-down mode?
That should not happen, do you have the setting "G_OVERRIDE_USB_CHARGER_BOOT=1" in your ubiboot.conf?
Also you do need to have G_DEFAULT_OS and G_DEFAULT_KERNEL set up to start a Harmattan kernel.

/boot is correct place and /home/nitdroid also correct ...
What about posting output of
ls -al /boot
nitdroid section of ubiboot.conf
/var/log/ubiboot.log and /var/log/ubiboot.dmesg
?

As peterleinchen wroted, in order to help you, you must post the file in the /boot folder and the content and your NITdroid entries section in ubiboot.conf file (starting from # Nitdroid kernels)

Thanks a lot. I got everything working. Just wasn't waiting long enough. Android is really slow though. I am not sure why. Now I have to learn more and install Nemo. Thanks a lot for your support.

Ah yes, especially on first boot it takes ages.
Furthermore you should get the latest nit kernel from e-yes with juiceme's L2 cache fix. Check http://downloads.nitdroid.com/e-yes/n9/ubiboot/

And also, as long as you ar onto it, I'd advice you to use the default Harmattan preinit file instead of the one I provide as "/sbin/preinit_harmattan" in the preinits.tar file... many people report that the file in the archive is not so reliable as the original Harmattan preinit. (I trimmed it down a bit, removed parts that I did not think were that useful and maybe I went a bit too far...)

I have it commented out, but now as I write I believe a configurable option could be nice to have early telnet/ssh possibilty during harmattan as we have in nitdroid and nemo. But I do not know if it makes sense at all and how to fetch config values in preinit? Do you get me, juiceme? Or just talking bullsh.t?
For preinit_nitdroid I also would like to fetch config values from ubiboot.conf, but who cares? Only me probably and so I just edit the preinit_nitdroid directly. Maybe one day I will get it starting from p5 !?
