see my first post for rooting.
kernel power is a good, documented and maintained kernel, you can stick with it. (OC at your own risk, wep cracking illegal unless it's your own network)
If something goes wrong when playing with kernels, remember that you can always just flash the kernel part (commands are on the firmware wiki), so you don't loose data or programs.

No evidence on overclocking warning, sure its only me amongst other people that agrees its best to not overclock the device.
Sure there's no thread of one demonstrated instance of overclocking does damage but you could at least agree that with a CPU that has NO form of active cooling, is stuck inside a small little box could actually live long enough? Have you never heard of stories where with normal desktop CPU that one has not placed the heatsink on and that melted the CPU when the computer was turned on? Have you not heard of stories where people overclocked their desktop computers whilst running on stock heatsink and fan and noticed they started facing issues with lockups? Do you not think those would not affect a puny little handheld device like the N900?
I never denied that N900 came overclocked from the manufacturer, I'm just further advising against any more adjustments to increase that overclocked limit because you may (note the word MAY) shorten the lifespan of the device.
Also adjusting the higher clock frequency without actually utilising that frequency does not actually affect the device however under full load (remember, the device is not dumb enough to stick itself under highest frequency unless you chose to also increase the lower clock frequency).

ok, i have a problem with this repartitioning. I follow the instructions from: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=188
but i cant get pass the step 2 (obtaining fdisk utility
this is what i get from xterm when input the code from there:
Nokia-N900:/home/user# mkdir -p /home/user/util-linux /home/user/bin
Nokia-N900:/home/user# cd /home/user/util-linux
Nokia-N900:/home/user/util-linux# wget http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool....1-1_armel.deb
-sh: wget: not found
Nokia-N900:/home/user/util-linux# dpkg-deb -x util-linux_2.13.1.1-1_armel.deb root
dpkg-deb: failed to read archive `util-linux_2.13.1.1-1_armel.deb': No such file or directory
Nokia-N900:/home/user/util-linux# cp root/sbin/fdisk /home/user/bin/
cp: cannot stat 'root/sbin/fdisk': No such file or directory
Nokia-N900:/home/user/util-linux# cd ..
Nokia-N900:/home/user# rm -rf util-linux
What am i doing wrong?
