flasher -F main.bin and then flash the openmode? Or do I need to do a complete reset for just Nitdroid?
You will "automatically" be in Open Mode whenever you install an Open Mode kernel. (so if you ever have loaded a non-Nokia-signed kernel, only for a split second, for example to boot into rescue mode, you already are in Open MOde)

The thing is, there are different kinds of Open Modes
If you enter open mode accidentally/unprepared, there is just a load of problems you might encounter, and you need to apply a number of fixes.
If you do it the recommended way, you just get to the same point but with less tweaking needed.

What is the purpose of having two versions of nitdroid? Isn't alpha 5 much faster than 4 (Although both are sluggish)?
I have no idea
I just made the double boot for @arifkhan123, just for fun
I have no idea why he needs it really...
