But without that OS loader, you are out of luck. I may be wrong here, but I think that's essentially it. And for those of us who are presently on the unexploited 2.2, we cant modify the recovery image selector. So, we cannot load rooted roms.
about dead on. stock 2.2 guys have to wait for root. unrevooked (spell checker don't know this one) forever might get you started, user input would be required for further info. (rooted already can't help)
