Default Root Droid 2.2?

Is there a way to root the Droid on Froyo, like using sbf or something?

So far from what I see, if your on 2.2 ota. Not as of yet. That should been a risk you considered and researched before upgrading to 2.2. Give it a little time though sure something will come up. Not totally sure on this just did some searching and didn't see a 2.2 root process yet, hope I'm wrong for your sake though.

Ok some good news, just found in droidxforums that dm updater has been updated to root droid1, droidx, and milestone. I would download and try it.

As far as i know, you should be able to sbf back down to 2.0.1, root, install clockwork recovery, and flash the pre-rooted 2.2 on rom manager.
I am angel12 from modaco, ppcgeeks, alldroid, droidmod.org and most other forums, i just didnt get angel12 here for some reason, someone already had it.

Do yourself a favor. Download SBF and Rd Life to flash to original 2.0.1. They root like post above said. If you are not use to flash the original SBF is a must. Makes it impossible to brick the Droid 1. I used it to recover mine before going to the Droid X.
