==Running your build, on the device==
If you built using the CHINOOK_ARMEL target, you can run the binaries on the N800/N810 device directly.
First, create a tarball from your build:
<code><pre>
cd moz1.9/mozilla/obj-dir-browser-chinook-armel/
make package
</pre></code>
This will create a compressed tarball under dist, name like <code>firefox-3.0pre.en-US.linux-arm.tar.bz2</code>. You probably want to uncompress this now with <code>bunzip2</code>, because Maemo doesn't include that utility.
Copy the file to the device, and open a command line (X Terminal) to extract the tarball and launch it:
<code><pre>
$ tar xf firefox-3.0pre.en-US.linux-arm.tar
$ cd firefox
$ ./firefox
</pre></code>
</pre></code>
