You can always backup using clockwork, install CM to give it a try and then restore, it's easy

not replying to your issue, just saying that i am exactly the same?

im on FLB MOD 1.5, with an 8gb class 6 sd with swap, and it feels quick enough and with no SMS problem.

but is CM6 better? :)

Issues? :)

For normal use there are no problems, only the gps is a little buggy.

I would definitly reccomend it. CM has some very handy options.

For example "lock messaging app in memory" so you'll never lose an sms again.

Surely there are some issues in this?

Is there a .zip of it yet, instead of doing all the complicated stuff to install it?

It is not that complicated, since you probably are able to flash the recovery image you can flash these too.

And yes there are some issues:

Known Bugs

No bluetooth

Wifi MAC is incorrect

Camera fails if you take multiple photos.

Manual network selection doesn't work.

Apps won't install to SD. CM6 has an option to force all apps to internal (disable froyo sd apps), use that until the problem is fixed.

But those are just not working and because I don't use them anyway there are no issues for me.

And a sidenote to the last bug is that old-style A2SD is working perfectly.

New one is the built-in froyo feature which doesn't work (yet).

The old one is a script like the one from Darktremor

afaik it has to do with the kernel version, we use .29 and for froyo .32 is better.

Then we could also use the usb and wifi tether functions.

Barnacle is working on froyo, just not the built-in feature.

I also don't use it a lot, but it can be very handy when I'm away with my netbook.
