These are my personal notes - nothing comes with warranty! Use at your own risk
My N900 setup
Reparitioning
THIS CAN MAKE IT A BRICK SO BE PREPARED TO RESTORE FROM FLASHER OR ANY OTHER WAY YOU CAN THINK OF
What I did to get a 50/50 sharing of memory and /dev/mmcblk0p2 still be ext3. Be extra careful because I've never made it to get it done with one shot. So it is more a guideline than a "how to".
Minor benefit of this setup is that memory is equally shared between ext3 and vfat and that vfat and ext3 are still on the same partition. Other reparitioning guides swap them, then you will need to edit some scripts for usb exporting the discs - which is easy but I didn't want that.
- do full backup on desktop computer with rsync. For an example see User:Jebba/Backups
- flash eMMC. See Updating tablet firmware and User:Jebba/Flash

- install rootsh

Remove boot video
vi /etc/hildon-welcome.d/default.conf
Put and # at the beginning of the second line
Customize media tracker
vi /home/user/.config/tracker/tracker.cfg /home/user/.config/tracker/tracker.cfg #restarting tracker afterwards
E.g. I disabled /media/mmc1 tracking.
Customized program list
Source: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=37874&highlight=hildon.menu
You can add folders an rearrange the icons application launcher by editing the file /etc/xdg/menus/hildon.menu The <Filename>'s in the Include section set the icons to display, so you can rearrange them or remove the ones you don't want. Adding more Menu sections will add folders (the one there represents the More..). Replace the OnlyUnallocated/ and All/ with a list of filenames for the apps you want in the folder (see the files in /usr/share/applications/hildon ).
Customized power button menu
vi /etc/systemui/systemui.xml
Search for e.g. reboot and enable the reboot entry, by setting the comments to a different place.
Not optified?
Some programs that I think, that could not be optified (df checking).
