Anyone willing to walkthrough rooting my Droid X already on 2.2 leaked (using Droid2 method) ? Would like to install the Flyx or tranqulity, guess that's using rom manager and gotta have clockwork recovery installed prior.

Kinda nervous and helping hand would be nice :)

Thanks, if it's not worth it at this point and should wait till official 2.2 and roms on official release, please say so.
 
If you're already rooted on 2.2, this should be easy.

Install Koush's bootstrapper app, bootstrap the recovery. Download ROM manager, download FlyX, and install it. Make sure to check make a backup. You probably want to wipe data too, though that means having to set up your apps and settings again.

Then, if you'd like Tranquility, that's another file to download, put on your sd card, then just use the install ROM from sd card option in ROM manager to install it. No need to wipe anything this time.
