[maemo-developers] Question about how to port to N800

[From: Darius Jack]

Hi,
as I live off-wifi spot I exactly know your problem.
I install packages from .deb. files transferred from PC (downloaded from the Internet) to Nokia tablet via usb.
If I get Nokia connected to PC (Win XP) via usb , it sees internal memory card as another drive.
So I move/copy .deb files from download directory to that H; drive.
Than I disconnect and open .deb. file on Nokia and install it on Nokia successfully if OS, version, dependencies are ok.
If something is wrong I get a message incorrect version
and error message in menu window.
It took me 2 months to master the above .
Other guys have no idea why some of us still live off-hot-spot.
Ok . I can be connected to PC via bluetooth and transfer files either.

Darius

I am a new developer. After I built my program in ARMEL and used this
command dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot to create the debian package, which
files should be copied to the N800?

And also after I use the USB cable to connect the N800 to my PC, how can I
copy the debian package to N800? I cannot find any drive of N800. Does it
just copy the package to a standard directory? And after I copied
successfully, where can I find the package in N800 and how can I install
my program in N800?

Please help. Thank you.

Regards,
Hung
