Start Cydia, go to Manage -> Sources -> Edit -> Add

in the box type, cydia.hackulo.us

At the prompt press yes, Now hit the search button and type installous.

Once cydia finishes adding installous head back to your springboard and start up installous, let it update the apps and there you go the free app store. Enjoy

Once you have installous installed, then add apptrackr home (http://www.apptrackr.org) as the homepage on that, and you will be able to get the apps then.
