Based on my exploits, a guide to "repartition" the N900:
http://sumoudou.org/0/5.html
BEWARE: if you mess up in any single step, you'll brick your N900, and will have to reflash, so not for the meek. You're on your own.
But I did it this way, so it works.
cd /usr/share/ for FILE in fonts icons locale mime nokia-maps pixmaps sounds themes tutorial-applet zoneinfo do mv $FILE /home/root/usr/share/ ln -s /home/root/usr/share/$FILE /usr/share/ done

I just used an extra microSD (4GB) to build my own Debian lenny chroot. I think it's not good to mess with the disk layout of the N900. So using a chroot on extra microSD you don't have any limitations beyond the microSD and don't loose any functions, such as regular firmware updates. You also can use multiple chroots on your microSD, so you are also able to install http://repository.maemo.org/stable/fremantle/armel/.

This is just stupid but if MyDocs isn't vfat nothing seems to want to work. This shouldn't be so - I would consider this a bug but not sure if Nokia would or the Maemo team.
Here's the file I made:
And of course THIS CAN MAKE IT A BRICK SO BE PREPARED TO RESTORE FROM FLASHER OR ANY OTHER WAY YOU CAN THINK OF
