You mean some of the .install files linked on that page (http://mg.pov.lt/770/reflash-n800.html) do not work for you? Oh, dear. This is a problem caused by the multitude of the repositories. When a package X from 3rd party repository A depends on a package Y from a different 3rd party repository B, it is not possible to write a working single-click install file for X. It would be possible, if .install files could add more than one repository, but currently they're limited to a single one. I usually install the packages in about the same order they're listed in that file. If it so happens that I install some package Z from repository B first, then I can install package X afterwards and not notice that it pulled some dependency from repository B. The proper solution for this mess would be to have a single central repository (e.g. Maemo Extras) and upload everything to it, the way Debian/Ubuntu works. I wasn't such a lazy slob, I'd go and reupload all my packages there today...
