Migrating from stock Android Froyo FRF85B to CyanogenMod 6 Alpha 1

[ Thanks to CS Wong for this link. ]

"This is just my record of how I migrated from a stock rooted installation of FRF85B on my Nexus One to CyanogenMod 6 Alpha 1 which was just released to the wild a couple of hours ago. CyanogenMod is an independent 3rd party effort by a group of volunteers to produce an enhanced Android ROM that mirrors the Android Open Source Project (AOSP) relatively faithfully.

"NOTE: As the "alpha" tag indicates, this is not production quality stuff yet. I don't even know how well my phone is working now after I installed CM6, so I'm hesitating to even use the work "upgrade" and instead I just say "migrate". Read the release notes in CyanogenMod's forums carefully and use your discretion."
