[maemo-developers] [maemo-developers] Installing maemo

[From: Jaap Haitsma]

Thanks for all your replies.

Sorry if my mail was confusing, I got it running with the install.sh 
before sending my mail. Just wanted to point out some options to improve 
the installation process.

What I meant with the debian packages is that my preferred method of 
installing would be
add some maemo repository and then do "apt-get install maemo" and that 
would install all the necessary packages. So the packages mentioned in 
the other mails from scratchbox.org and the maemo rootstrap modules
