Re: Rooting

Flash it in fastboot. That method is pretty much fool proof.

This is for the evi, but the fastboot instructions are the same for every android device. Put the recovery image of the tools folder of the sdk and follow the instructions labeled "fastboot"

Nonononononono not necessary. You probably need to clear the recovery image you already have installed. Sow load rom manager from the market and use the delete current recovery image. Your giving yourself a lot of extra headaches.

Are you issuing the su command before you do that?

The su command is typing is the command "su" before you do anything.
