Wrap the outside of a 9-inch springform pan with 2 layers of heavy-duty foil; coat the inside with cooking spray. Combine graham cracker crumbs, butter, 2 tablespoons sugar and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan, pressing it into the bottom of the pan. Bake until set and light golden, 8 to 12 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack for 30 minutes. (Do not turn off oven.) Add cream cheese and the remaining 2/3 cup sugar to a large bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until soft and no lumps remain. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing until the first egg is fully incorporated before adding the second. Reduce the mixer speed to low and beat in eggnog, rum extract, vanilla and nutmeg. Mix just until smooth; do not over-mix. Pour the filling into the cooled crust. Gently jiggle the pan to smooth the top. Place the cheesecake in a large roasting pan; place on the rack in the bottom third of the oven. Pour enough warm water into the roasting pan to come halfway up the sides (do not let water get into the foil wrapping). Bake until set on the edges and light golden-brown, 45 to 50 minutes. The middle should still jiggle slightly when you nudge the pan. Turn the oven off, prop open the door and let the cheesecake cool for 1 hour. Remove the pan from the oven and refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 2 hours before removing the sides of the pan and serving.
