    Snipped...

    Excellent, thanks very much for this. Worked great with a French ROM too.

    Also, the link to the download for rsd lite v 3.6.0 seems to be broken on the linked website, any other links available?

    I really don't know why they say unrootable. Perhaps it is bypassed by the vulnerable recovery SBF?

    I am unsure if this guide will work for versions other than 2.1. Try at your own risk.

    I do recommend updating to 2.1 and then rooting however.
    When im in recovery mode, it says Error: can't find Cache/Recovery/Command and the update.zip wont stay in the root directory of my sd for some reason, after i paste it there and come back to it, its gone, whats going on? thanks


    I am having the same problem with that error!!Error: can't find Cache/Recovery/Command and when i clicked on update.zip it says "cannot find update_binary" What did you do to fix that? But I have that "superuser whitelist" in my app list but not sure if my milestone is really rooted... Please help.... Sorry I'm a nood in this stuff.....

    so people here asked whether or not they can go straight into rooting if they're already at 2.1 stock. I was wondering if anyone has the answer to that? because if possible i'd rather not downgrade first and lose all my stuff on my phone.

    oh ya, i have a 90.74 bootloader..should i flash the 90.73 anyway?
