You should do that before anything COULD go wrong. It would make fixing it much easier.
Very cool. So you can do a 'dd' restore from that image just like you would on a Linux machine, and it will simply overwrite all you might have hacked/screwed up? Although, if so, and if you were to 'restore' via USBNetwork hack, or a Launchpad script, or a Kindle terminal, wouldn't an error occur due to the fact that you will be removing the hack to allow it to work, all in one command?
