There is a way to change this,but this requires a lot of work,,,,,

This page has the steps for that,but are not easy,so proceed only if you know what you are doing...
Aditya is correct. However, with the methods in the link he/she provided, you might as well end up in reflashing the N900.

On the other hand, while there is no automated way of doing it, there are ready-made customized eMMC image files that you can flash your N900 with. You have a choice of either having an 8GB "/home" partition or 5 GB "/home" partition. It's in the Wiki Page of NITDroid.

Can't escape flashing, but this is the easiest that we can have.
