Here’s some steps you can take to install some new boot videos on your N900, and then store them in /opt so that you don’t take up storage space on rootfs.  You’ll need to first find some boot videos that you’d like to use.  Typically I’ve been finding a great collection of them posted to the forums over at http://talk.maemo.org.  Looks like the best format for them is AVI format from what I’m reading in the posts on that forum.

Download them to your N900 either over the internal browser, or transfer them over USB cable.  I put them under /home/user/MyDocs/tmp (which will show up as /N900/tmp on the device).  Then go through these steps to set them up “optified”, which just means that you’ll be storing them in some of the 32GB of space the N900 has instead of the limited storage available on the “rootfs” filesystem.
