A lot of people here say that you need to extract all the files to the root of the SD card in order for Android to boot up and work properly

But if you like keeping your SD card clean, you can try this instead:

1) Delete all the Android files from your SD card
2) Create a folder on the root of the SD card called 'Android' (no quotes, exact spelling and punctuation - i.e. capitalized 'A')
3) Dump all the Android files back in that new folder you just made
4) Boot 'er up

Note: This method will still create 'cache' and 'data' folders on the SD card, but everything else will be kept nice and tidy in that 'Android' folder you made
Thanks, I like this option better. This does make it so the Gen.Y DualBOOT does not work unless you set the AndroidBootFolder=1 in the registry.

See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=623792 and look in the Registry area of the first post.
