Here is the wiki on updating the firmware, aka. flashing: http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_tablet_firmware Pick your PC system and the files you want to flash.

First install rootsh and backupmenu: rootsh will give you a working access to root's rights, while backupmenu has a couple of functions, like backup things or export all partitions to a PC, that is able to handle the file systems (mostly working in linux, but there are drivers for windows also).

You also might want to look into resizing the partition used for /home and /home/opt to increase the space to install applications: http://wiki.maemo.org/Repartitioning...ng_made_simple

Next go for the kernel-power install to use overclocking or additional modules.

Code:

sudo gainroot
apt-get update
apt-get install kernel-power kernel-power-modules kernel-power-flasher kernel-power-settings

Later get CSSU: Either CSSU-stable http://repository.maemo.org/communit...mantle.install or CSSU-testing http://repository.maemo.org/communit...mantle.install installed.

Edit: Stay away from the patches for battery and speed, those tend to break things sooner or later!
