Typically, the ota updates mess up the permissions on the su binary, which breaks root. If you have cwm installed for the recovery, it might not flash, and even if it did, then it might fail because the updater-script expects and check that it's working on a stock system.

I'm working on a flashable version of the rom, but I need to find an upload site that will take over 200mb. It's the full rom :0

Got a new transformer, update it to 8.6.5.21 and like to install root. After that I read all the topics here.
Any idea, how long it takes, when we can root the new version?

The same from me. I was on 3.1, glad I updated even if it means I have to wait for a new root method.

you will have to wait until new exploit is found and razorclaw is updated until then you will be stuck with non-root. Upside stock asus rom is not that bad compared to other tabs.

    My Transformer went and downloaded the update on me. But since I haven't rebooted yet I'm still on .19 and rooted. I'm sure there is a file somewhere that I can delete to keep the update from happening. Can anyone point me to the update file to delete?

    I posted a full, rooted rom in the dev section. You can flash it with cwm and it will upgrade, keep root, and leave recovery intact.
