Manually Update to 2.0.1
Below are the instrcutions for applying 2.0.1 manually without waiting for OTA Update.
Grab this file https://android.clients.google.com/upda ... 263456.zip
Rename the file to update.zip and place it the root directory of your SD Card.
Power off the phone.
Power on the phone, while holding the 'X' on the physical keyboard.
When you see the triangle and !, press Volume Up + Camera button.
Navigate to "apply update.zip" and press the gold button (center) on the D-Pad. Now it will install.
Reboot phone (should take 3-4 minutes).
Your DROID is now running 2.0.1 instantly without waiting.

Thank you.

I'm confused I downloaded the .zip file, do I drop the whole thing onto the SD card?
