Diablo Community SSU
Skip this if you want to use the build-debs and fetch-debs scripts below.
Download community-ssu-enabler and all packages into a CSSU directory:

mkdir CSSU-wget CSSU
cd CSSU-wget
wget -r --no-parent -l 8 -e robots=off --wait=10 http://repository.maemo.org/community/pool/diablo/free/
mv repository.maemo.org/community/pool/diablo/free/*/*/*.deb ../CSSU/
cd ..
rmdir CSSU-wget

Diablo Extras, Diablo Extras-devel and Diablo SDK
Create /root/build-debs.sh (nano /root/build-debs.sh ; chmod 700 /root/build-debs.sh) and run it on your device

#!/bin/sh

Create /root/fetch-debs.sh (nano /root/fetch-debs.sh ; chmod 700 /root/fetch-debs.sh) and run it on your device or copy it and /root/package-deb-list to another device and run there. Create a directory for the packages and change to it. Pass the /root/package-deb-list filename to the script.

Partition SD card https://wiki.maemo.org/Partitioning_a_flash_card
Partition SD card and format DOS partition
```
umount /media/mmc2
sfdisk /dev/mmcblk0 << EOF
1,30720,6
30721,,


EOF
mkdosfs /dev/mmcblk0p1
shutdown -r now
```
- The 30720 is the number of 32k blocks in the partition and the 30721 should be one greater. Multiply the 30720 by the number of GB you want the DOS partition to hold and set the 30721 as one greater.
- Remove the '1,30720,6' line and change the line following it to '1,,' if you don't want a DOS partition
- Change '6' to 'c' if DOS partition is larger than 2G (and change the mkdosfs command to mkfs.vfat)
- The two blank lines are important, don't leave them out

Format Linux partition (after device reboots)

mke2fs /dev/mmcblk0p2
tune2fs -j /dev/mmcblk0p2

Install klogd and sysklogd after booting in the SD partition
If the SD partition won't be boot you can boot into the flash partition and run /root/mount-mmc3.sh to mount the SD partition and go to /media/mmc3 to access its files. You can also run /root/mount-mmc3.sh ; chroot /media/mmc3 to mount and switch to the SD, and run /root/start-syslog.sh to start syslog on the SD partition and then press ctrl-d to exit the SD partition and then reboot to the SD partition. After the SD partition crashes again you can boot back into the flash partition mount the SD cart with /root/mount-mmc3.sh and view the log file at /media/mmc3/var/log/syslog.
