My goal was not necessarly to use OpenTom directly, but rather to run
my own kernel. Of course, I know how to use toolchain, build kernels,
etc.

My problem is specific to the Tomtom device: by replacing the original
'ttsystem' file from the internal memory by my own (with my kernel, my
filesystem, packed together with the image building tools from the
Wiki), will I be able to restore back the original version if something
goes wrong ?

Thanks,

Thomas
