Rooting itself isn't dangerous, as long as you take the time to learn what you need to do, and then follow it step by step. But it's only worth doing if you want to do something with your device that can't be done any other way. There are a number of apps that take advantage of some device features to allow you to do some things that normally require rooting. There is a learning curve. As long as you are clear on what you want to do and just focus on that, you should be fine.

Don't try anything you are unsure of. There is the potential of bricking your device. If there are people on this forum who have your device and have rooted it, they can help you with the needed steps. I wouldn't want to risk talking you through a device that I'm not familiar with. But I'll bet that someone here has rooted your device!
Thanks, I'd like to run linux applications, which is otherwise practically impossible. And remap the buttons.

Booxtor appears to have rooted the n96ml:
