I must warn you that messing around in the internals of the system -can- make your n900 not bootable - There are a number of people who ended up with a "reboot-loop'd" machine due to messing with a file or a command they didn't understand.
Also, if the only reason you are trying to upgrade is that it's an old version... Don't. You don't have to worry about any problems arising - at worst, it simply doesn't have some feature. And, even advanced users won't really have to worry about this.
Personally, I've found some stuff missing in busybox I would have liked, but I was able to wolrk around it without much trouble.

well thank you as u suggested !...so i guess i shall go on with what i have for now...
so first i must learn a few things or two in order to use it internally till then i won't mess ... i wouldn't want it to end up in a reboot loop...
but as a matter of curiosity...will it be possible to bring the phone to normal by FLASHING if it ends up in a reboot loop due to "whatever" reasons??
