*install community-ssu-enabler
*run community-ssu-enabler(just press on him)
*thum2 installed correctly(before reboot the phone it's shows one title your oper.... system is updated.....)
*till here(black screen)
regards
note:this is not my first install thumb2 I have other n900 and hi working without any problems with thumb2

and what happens if you start your device with open keyboard, so u-boot menu to be shown? did you make KP53 default u-boot entry?

The u-boot does this automatically,when I installing kernel-power-bootimg.When start my phone with open keyboard,from u-boot menu I select kp53/52 and after this.....
You mean that I mamually remove and add in /etc/bootmenu.d/20-Maemo5-kernel-power-2.....item

no, what you describe is ok.

Did you try to install cssu-thumb without having backupmenu installed? as bootmenu had some problems with cssu, it could be the same with backupmenu

Yes I tried without backupmenu and u-boot yesterday,but again the same resul it is happened.
note:when installing kernel-power53 one is depends it was u-boot(maybe for the kernel-power-bootimg)strange,for kp52 there isn't this thing

Is there a specific reason you installed kernel-power? I flashed my N900 last week as well the same way you did (u-boot, bootmenu, CSSU-thumb...) with the only difference that I didn't install kernel-power.

From what I understand CSSU is providing it's own kernel that basically is like KP anyway. Yes it should work with KP but maybe in your combination/configuration there is something going wrong with it.

It's happen some mess with u-boot although previously i was deleted kernel-power and u-boot could not recognize cssu-kernel it's shows in u-boot menu only titan kernel but won't load restart after restart.So i flashed only kernel but again won't start.Аt the end i flashed again completely my n900.I forgot to copy the warning message from x-terminal and paste here,however
note:

It's happen some mess with u-boot

now I realized that during the installation of cssu-thumb,the system not install ssu-kernel-bootimg,it should be done that,but why it's not I don't know

It's because you installed kernel-power before, so of course there's gonna be the kernel-power-bootimg and not the kernel-cssu-bootimg. CSSU is installing kernel-cssu-bootimg only if kernel-power isn't already installed as far as I understood it.

That's why I said there might be something wrong going on with your combination of cssu-thumb+u-boot+backupmenu+kernel-power. It shouldn't but it's a possibility. Maybe you could just try to reflash and ommit installing kernel-power this time so that CSSU installs kernel-cssu instead.
