So I was attempting to flash this ROM for the first time http://forum.xda-dev.....php?t=1762846 and the instructions recommended using this Super_Wipe_Galaxy.zip file which I did through CWM. It went through the process and stopped on Step 4, "Clearing EXT4 *DATA* partition". It's been sitting there a good 1 1/2 hours now. What are my options? I'm assuming it really shouldn't take this long. Normally, I wipe data the old fashioned way. This is the first time something like this has ever happened to me. I have nandroid back-ups if needed. Can I just pull the battery and restore a Nandroid? Trying to remain calm..

Verizon Samsung Galaxy Nexus

i wouldn't bother with the script. probably be fine to pull battery and boot back into recovery and wipe data and system and flash rom.
also, make sure you're on newest recovery.

Yeah, that's what I ended up doing eventually and it worked fine. Last time I run a script like this. Thanks for responding.
