Here is an FBReader install fle which works on n800/os2008: http://www.fbreader.org/maemo/maemo4/fbreader.install

I was also getting "(null)" error when I tried to use install file from Joshi's site.

In OS2008 install files, you can put all repositories that you want:

For N800:
Please give me more information about your problems with installing repos from my repo-list. I'm using 3 N800s and - of course - I've no problem to install the repositories.
Just click onto the name of it. The server creates a temporary .install-File and send this file with html-header "application/x-install-instructions" to your browser. Your browser should open a pop-up and ask for "open" or "save". Click "open" and the program-manager should open and install the repo.
This is the way with microb-Browser. Maybe there are some problems with the original Opera-Browser?

For N810:
I'll have no N810 in the near future. So I cannot test the repo-List. Could anyone tell me please, what is the right format for the .install-File?
For N800 is it like this:
[install]
repo_name = name
repo_deb_3 = deb url distribution components


Thanks for your help!

CU,
Joschi
I get the following error after I click on "open":

Unable to instlal (null).
Incompatible application package.

I click OK

It does not show up in my application catalog.

This is using 2008 OS on an N800.

OS2008 for the N800 will officially be out soon, but if you want to test it now you could install it on one of those 3(!) N800s you have.

How to put OS2008 on N800.... now!

I have same trouble you describe with adding repos. But lots of other links don't work either, so I ignored it. Example: go to nokia's OS2008 user page and follow link to UKMP, a 'recommended app'. You get

Server Error

Component org.openpsa.products failed to handle the request

Thanks for your posts!

@technut & yerga:
Your link describes that OS2008 should be compatible with OS2007-install-files...

But anyway - I changed the format to the described new one.
PLEASE test, if installations from my list are working now!!! (...and give me feedback.... )

Because the files changes all the time, so its better to create it dynamically. Thats the reason why i coded these poor database scripts...

They are all business-used - but maybe I can grab the one of my wife for testing it or ask her for buying a new one...

When I have more time, I'll try to create such a "all-inclusive-file". Then you can install all listed and active repos with one click...
