First, thank you very much Rob!

As of today, I tried to install backupmenu for the first time on my n900 (PR1.3, stock kernel, no CSSU, no prior bootmenu).

Attempting to install backupmenu-1.2.0-1 from extras-devel did not work successfully. The install appeared to go smoothly, but upon selecting backupmenu from the bootmenu my n900 appeared to turn off.

I was successful installing backupmenu-1.1.1-1 I'd like to share how.
(assuming you have wget installed, and extras-devel enabled)
In the terminal...
Code:
cd ~/MyDocs
wget http://robbiethe1st.afraid.org/BackupMenu/backupmenu_1.1.1-1_all.deb
sudo gainroot
apt-get install tar-gnu i2c-tools liblzo2-2 mtd-utils bootmenu
apt-get remove --purge backupmenu  #Needed if you have installed a previous version.
dpkg -i ./backupmenu_1.1.1-1_all.deb
