Losing my sanity - Rooting

[Dappa]

Hi

I amtrying to root my UK 2.1 Milestone.

I have followed all instructions down to a tee.

I have installed the UK 2.1 update via RSD.

I install the vulnerable sbf.

I try to apply sdcard update.zip and I always get the same message:

E:failed to open /sdcard/update.zip(no such file or directory)
Esigniture verification failed
Installation aborted.

I honestly cannot fathom what I am doing wrong. I have done it exactly as instructed ?

It sounds like your vulnerable sbf might not be flashing for some reason.


try using open recovery instead of the root update.zip. you can find it here.

There's some nice options and an easy root script.

I have downloaded open recovery.

How do I go about using it is there a guide ?

Managed to do it using Open recovery.
