I would put a note here:

1. There will be a pop-up notification telling you that U-Boot will be "overwritten" (i.e. Kernel Power will flash it). Do not accept it.
2. This will result to Kernel Power Boot Image for U-Boot to be not installed.
3. Open FAM and check if Kernel Power Boot Image for U-Boot is not installed. If so, install it. You will not be prompted to flash/overwrite the U-Boot Kernel
   

restart n900

Code:

sudo gainroot
u-boot-update-bootmenu

restart with open ukeyboard
choose kp52

If you want to installing backupmenu:

Code:

apt-get install backupmenu

restart n900,with close ukeyboard,when shows the titles of u-boot,open ukeyboard and you see how loading bootmenu,choose maemo with..

I would edit this as:

1. Turn off N900
   
2. Keep keyboard open
3. Turn on N900
4. U-Boot will appear. You can select a Kernel.
5. After selecting a Kernel, don't close the keyboard. Boot Menu (with Backupmenu inside of it) will initiate.
   

then advice from Pali:

Code:

root
ln -s /etc/bootmenu.d/20-Maemo5-kernel-power-2.6.28.10-power52.item /etc/default/bootmenu.item

after that the backmenu shoud properly load kp52
I think this is all,if somebody have other advice please share it
