do not flash an ATT radio to a international phone. search for your radio!

1. Choose the Rom/kernel you want to use from the Atrix Android Development forum

2. Put the CWM zip file on your sdcard (sdcard-ext)

3. Load recovery

4) Install the CWM Zip

5) Clear /data and /cache and /davlike cache

* if your phone goes into a boot loop after flashing a rom or kernel this is always the first thing to try.

Grats!
