Dual-booting the Mer-based Nemo Mobile on Nokia N950

Instructions for dual-booting Nemo Mobile on the N950 are available at the Mer Project wiki. The process involves extracting and flashing a specially modified file onto the device. The process is reversable and doesn't seem like it should affect your Harmattan install (although backing up is obviously recommended before you start the process).
