Need to unlock bootloader on 2.3.4

Hey guys, im sure theres a thread about this already and please dont pick on me, i just cant find it for the love of me, plus my boss is on my ass about computer time.
can someone please point me in the direction of unlocking the bootloader on a atrix that came with the official 2.3.4 update. i really hate blur and i want to install a custom rom, i have superuser and cwm installed i just need to unlock the bootloader
This thread is how I did it. Pretty painless. Make sure you read the thread before you do it though. The OTA update will soft brick your phone before you issue the unlock command. Be sure to thank the original poster.

Before installing a custom rom you need to install recovery, if you haven't installed any recovery previously. check this link to install recovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1364509
Here you can find the Custom Rom's for both Locked & Unlocked Boot Loader http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1450
Before trying any Rom check whether it is for Locked/Unlocked Boot Loader. Instruction for flashing that Rom will on that thread itself.

[Q] Is the Atrix 4g the only Moto with unlockeable bootloader?

i've already have my Atrix with a custom rom and kernel, 'cause i've unlocked the bootloader, rooted and installed romracer's recovery.
i've been searching through the Atrix 2 and Droid Razr forums ('cause i'm thinking of buying one of those devices since the ICS let down) to see how possible it is to change roms in those devices and to my surprise, none of them has a way to unlock the bootloader (thus no way to install a custom kernel?).
is it really the Atrix 4g the only moto (besides some razr and photon developer editions) that is "hack" friendly?, the only moto that can freely load a rom with a custom kernel?.
greetings.
Officially other that what Motorola lists is what can be unlocked, Though there is an automated script that managed to unlock mine on 2.3.6 (I got the phone when it came out, so I am not sure if it works on later/refurbished models)

Thanks in advance, i would greatly appricate it if you could also post file download links.

The best way to do it. Its confirmed working on your version. Look thru the thread for the most current download cuz the op link is dead. I used it on exactly same version you have.

luckily it is possible (via script though) unlock the atrix 4g bootloader, i haven't seen a method on atrix 2 or droid razr
