Hmm, I really should have waited for your reply before charging in head first as usual... I didn't bother with any of that pansy backup business and immediately flashed it with clockworkmod + the very latest nightly cyanogenmod build. Probably should have been a little more conservative :] Cyanogenmod unfortunately just sits at it's admittedly pretty cool loading screen until I reboot it, so I'll try again with a stable build instead. I promised myself I'd be a little more careful with flashing the Nexus as I'm completely new to it, and that promise lasted all of about 5 seconds. D'oh. Is there a particular client side (Linux) tool I should be using to streamline this? I'm just using the adb tools + the Nexus onscreen menus at the moment. Thanks for the info.
