Yea basically you'll have to wipe partition & cache etc via recovery, make sure you make a backup of your prev rom incase something goes wrong.


Steps :1. Select "Wipe data/factory settings" ..... Confirm "Yes-Wipe data/factory settings"
2. Select "Wipe cache partition" ..... Confirm "Yes - Wipe cache partition"
3. Select "Install from sd card" ..... Select the ROM file ("CM10-20121109-NIGHTLY-mb526.zip") you saved in your sd card and confirm it with "Yes"
4. Go to back>back until you reach the home menu of the recovery boot console. Then select "Advanced" option.
5. Select "Wipe Dalvik cache"
6. Select "Wipe battery cache"
7. Select "install from sd card".....select the gapps file you saved in your sd card and confirm it with "Yes"
(gapps minimal recommended)
8. Select "install from sd card".....select the update file ("update_for_02.11.zip") you saved in your sd card and confirm it with "Yes"
9. Repeat step 5 & 6.

Now reboot, and just wait till everything loads, takes sometime on initial boot.

You need not have to unroot the phone for doing so
Just download the 2.3 ROM zip file and flash with it

you have to activate ksm and zram via performance under settings, then restart and should be fine

from what i've found it, cm10 uses ext4 partition, and cm7-9 use ext3. hence it cause problems, so before you install cm7.2 you will have to format and change it to ext 7.2, it seems to work after that.

At bootmenu-->tools-->file system tools-->format to ext3.

try this and see if it works.
