Hackers have been installing rooting the Motorola XOOM and installing custom kernels with support for overclocking for months. But now the first cooked ROM is available for the tablet, offering a complete replacement for the firmware that ships with the XOOM.
 
The Tiamat XOOM ROM 1.0 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=14567558) is pre-rooted and provides a number of featues out of the box including:
 
 • SU, superuser and busybox
 
 • SMS capabilities

 • USB mass storage

 • WiFi Ad-Hoc mode

 • A browser hack that will display full desktop views of web pages by default
 
The ROM also comes with a couple of apps preloaded including Adobe Flash Player and a file explorer.
 
The software is based on the firmware from the Verizon 3G  version of the Motorola tablet, but it should work on the WiFi version as well.
