 This is a complete list of steps I went through to configure my N770 in case I have to go through them again. Since I had previously messed the settings up. I am starting with a reflash to the latest version.
- I couldn't get [[ http://maemo.org/community/wiki/howto_easily_boot_from_mmc_card/ | these instructions]] to boot from the MMC to work because the rsync/tar command at the end to clone the installation failed so I will be using my MMC as secondary storage only (e.g. for dictionaries, cached maps, media files etc).
   * Upgrade to the latest official version using [[ http://maemo.org/community/wiki/HOWTO_FlashLatestNokiaImageWithLinux | these instructions]]. Currently this is 3.2006.49-2. I am not brave enough to try the unsupported OS2007 Hacker Edition yet.

-  * Formatted my MMC with two partitions, a 500 MB vfat (mmc1) and a 1.5GB ext2 (mmc2). [[http://maemo.org/community/wiki/HowTo_EASILY_Partition_your_MMC_card | Instructions here ]].
+ * Follow [[ http://maemo.org/community/wiki/howto_easily_boot_from_mmc_card/ | these instructions]] to copy the installation to a 2GB MMC card I have installed and boot from that instead. This retains the original configuration in case I need to revert to it, provides more diskspace and is reported to run faster.
