    Oh I see Superfly already did that...cool

    Tell me if it worked for you guys...

    At first the SuperUser icon is different...its more like a ninja android...(though it still worked and did the same thing)
    ...then when I installed bugless beast...it change the icon to the original ninja.

    Software2Tech.com Android Root Apps: Updated Universal Androot (V1.5.3) was Release and Available for Download

    That's the site I downloaded the app from...and tells you how to do it.

    But as for backups...I did mine using Rom Manager/ClockWorkrecovery.

    And your phone is a Droid 1, right? I presume so from your icon, but I want to make sure. I went to the site and it says

    Nexus One (2.2),HTC Hero (2.2), HTC Desire (2.2),Motorola Milestone (2.1),Motorola Milestone XT701 (2.1), etc

    No mention of Droid 1, although I gather that from the Milestone reference.

    Well, it's worth a shot.
