(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I have found this about installing openiboot on IPOD TOUCH 2G. I have heard that it works but i am going to try it out and give feed back. BUT PLEASE, SOMEONE ELSE TRY IT TOO!!!! I know some of the directions are kinda confusing but i cant really help you with it because i didnt make this...so, here you go!!!!

WILL BE UPDATING THIS AS I GO ALONG

Heres a guide to installing Jaywalker's OpeniBoot for iPod Touch 2g. This program is still Alpha so dont expect to much. I also prefer that you have backed up your iPod Touch and have nothing you wouldnt mind losing on it (A.K.A you might have to restore if you mess up or something) Ok so lets start.

MUST HAVE IPOD IN RECOVERY MODE!


Requirements:
-A Jailbroken iPod Touch 2g (has to be with redsn0w or pwnagetool)
-Linux Ubuntu (prefereblly 10.04 LTS 32-bit)
-Willingness to restore your iPod
-A PC
-An iPod USB Cable

Preparation:
Install all the tools needed:
Code:

    sudo apt-get install libusb-1.0-0 libusb-1.0-0-dev libreadline6-dev readline-common libreadline6 libreadline-dev texinfo cmake git-core build-essential texinfo libreadline-dev libssl-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev libpng12-dev libusb-dev autoconf automake libnewlib-dev

Log in as root:
Code:
sudo -s
Then enter in your computer password


Mounting, Compiling, and Installing

1. First we want to mount the git repository.

    

git clone git://github.com/kleemajo/iphonelinux.git

1a. Then mount the directory

    cd iphonelinux/

2. Build the toolchain
2a.
Code:

    sudo toolchain/build-toolchain.sh make

2b. Enter in your password to log into root and wait a while for the toolchain to compile
2c. If your having problems with building newlib then try this:
Code:

    sudo rm /usr/local/bin/arm-elf-cc

3.Build
3a. Change Directory
Code:

    cd openiboot

3b.Build OpeniBoot
Code:

    PLATFORM=IPOD2G make openiboot.img3

4. Compile all in client
Code:

    cd ../tools/client/linux/

4a.
Code:

    make all

4b.
Code:

    cd

4c.
Code:

    cd iphonelinux

5.Load the client to your device
Code:

    

sudo tools/client/linux/loadibec openiboot/openiboot.img3

5a.Run the client
Code:

    sudo tools/client/linux/oibc

6. Your done!

Updates:
Looks like kleemajo got OiB flashed to his NOR. I'm testing out right now. And if your brick your device NOBODY IS TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE EXCEPT YOU though we would be glad to try and help you fix your device. I'll change the guide if I get the install working I just have to get wubi on my laptop again since I'm taking a small 5 hour or so trip.

SPI and NOR fixes, I'm not sure if there done yet, but I'll figure that out sooner or later. I'm pretty sure Jaywalker isn't working on it anymore and the main developer for this project is kleemajo right now.
-Saphiresurf

USB and Accelerometer works now

And with that, I'm going to call it a night. Sorry It's not 100% done, but i'll finish that up first thing tomorr...zzzzz.....

Readme (for people mostly interested in helping the project):
iPod Touch 2G Users:

Please note, this software is extremely alpha and currently only makes the device reboot from C code. This is not a bug, it's a feature.

Also, for those interested in helping out, here's a TODO for what's remaining:

* Port LCD Driver (I'll probably have to do this one.. I have some good info already)
* Verify the DMA driver works (again.. it's the same as the iphone2g)
* Port the rest - at least we'll have the basic openiboot working by this point

PLEASE DON NOT MOVE TO MOBILE DEVICE SECTION....WITH OPENIBOOT YOU YOU CAN PUT ON PS JAILBREAK AND THIS SHOULD STAY!!!

Has anyone been able to get it done with ipt4g?

IF it hasn't been hacked into yet, it wont be.

This program is still Alpha so dont expect to much.

Its not alpha, it will never work

saying that is like saying "EVERYTHING THAT CAN BE INVENTED HAS" that IS NOT TRUE AND NEVER WILL BE. we are ALWAYS making new things, new hacking programs, new ipods new EVERYTHING. That it one of the most out of this world things i have ever heard. really, just think about it.

Umm Just wondering if anyone noticed that the You must login or register to view this content. post is from 5/27/2010? I hate being the kill joy.... O_o

All those "codes" are those supposed to be put into CMD or what the instructions suck :p (No offence)

All those "codes" are those supposed to be put into CMD or what the instructions suck :p (No offence)

you u need ubuntu to do this and in that it is called something else, not cmd but sortta the same thing though

This post annoyed me..

1) The operating system and bootloader are two different things...
It will NOT work on iPod 4g or 3g as you cannot run unsigned code at iBoot level, nevermind the low level bootloader (at this minute)
2) You cannot install android to the iPod touch 2g as the kernel drivers need recoded.

Please don't be a fool and give people false hope. that is all.
