Please read next time, at least the last few pages. I just 2 posts up said this is old and doesn't work.

I'm using the Universal Androot method on my slide and if I just click root it just reboots my phone and get nothing. Now if I click the temporary root (unroot after reboot) it works but I can't flash any roms like Cyanogenmod because when it reboot it unroots itself. Any help or ideas would be appreciated.

After you get temproot you have more work to do before you reboot. Try following the pc-less rooting guide (it's here in the dev section somewhere), as that uses the temproot method.

Guys, is there a canonical guide to permarooting the Slide somewhere? I'm having a really hard time sorting through the spaghetti of instructions I've found thus far.

    I just replaced the update.zip and started in recovery, launched update.zip and all seemed fine. I already had root though and I have my sd card full so I can't try a2sd or sdparted yet but it seemed to run fine.

    Go to theunlockr.com and type in adb setup and start there.
