+
+My directions were a little different from the instructions I found on the net.
+These directions are for the Nexus S hardware.
+
+First install the Android SDK locally and add-on the fastboot command line tool
+(google for it).
+
+Put the phone in bootloader and unlock it (deleting all data). Reboot normally
+and download the signed SuperUser and CyangoGen mod packages. Reboot into
+bootloader and flash the twrp-crespo-2.0.0RC0.img recovery mode image (mirrored
+on my static site). Use recovery mode to install SuperUser from the "Install"
+menu (could skip this step?). Then install the CyanogenMod package the same
+way.
