Rooting 4.1 and previous versions of Android was pretty straight forward, but 4.2 is a little different from what I've heard. I've got all the drivers installed, the SDK configured, and my bootloader unlocked. Can someone verify that the steps below are correct?

1) Enable USB debugging and put the SuperSU zip on the root directory of the SD card (Using this file) It needs to be on the root directory for 4.2, right?

2) Shut the phone off, put it in fastboot mode, and plug it in

3) Flash CWM (I'll be using 6.0.3.1, not the touch version) in fastboot

4) Flash SuperSU in CWM and reboot

I'm pretty sure that's all there is to it, but I'm not 100% sure. Thanks for reading :D
