Carry on from the start of perma root, and don't move that ext4 file you downloaded earlier

so the ext4 file shold be in the root of the hdd and not in the sdcard folder that is in the hdd
the sdcard folder is one of many folders on the hdd
i have dcim android sdcard folders and the ext4 file in no folder is this right?
btw i only just put the ext4 file in after i created the sd card

Basically yes, it needs to end up in /sdcard, which we linked to /mnt/sdcard

quinny....you're a god. we've been needing a straight-forward, up-to-date root guide for the G9. This thread is amazing, you deserve a beer. also, props for helping peoples issues who reply to this thread. You deserve a beer (or two or three)
I'm going to hold up on the root until ICS, but good work nonetheless

Thank you very much for compiling all of this information into one place. I have been searching for a good root method for the Archos G9 101 and I have finally found it.
I have one question though, after selecting "Flash Kernel and Initramfs" and adding the initramfs.cpio.gz and zImage files to the device and proceding to steps 14-15 I am not presented with a menu option to “Remove android Kernel” under the “Developer Edition Menu”.
Do you know why this option would not be available and is it a problem if this step is not completed. I was previously running stock firmware 3.2.79.

This is as far as I was able to get. The only options that were there are to flash the kernel and initramfs and to Uninstall Developer Edition (or something like that) which if chosen would cause the G9 to keep booting into recovery mode.
Sorry guys, I miss typed that step.
It should read in recovery go to:
Recovery System > Developer Edition Menu > Remove Android Kernel
