[maemo-users] Anyone have success with j2me on n800? Using latest firmware...

[From: Mike Klein]

As Igor mentions below if you check "/etc/fstab" you will see noexec in
listed options. To remove is to be subject to other issues.

Change to different filesys is more appropriate (ntfs or native linux
format ext2/ext3). I don't think n800 supports ntfs though.

I'm sure forums have notes on formatting sd correctly for ext2.
