redsn0w 0.1
-----------

This release is only for iPod touch 2G, firmware version 2.2.1. Versions are
available for Windows, Linux and Mac.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR WINDOWS
------------------------

It is recommended NOT to connect the iPod through any sort of USB hub.

	1. Either connect the iPod in DFU mode to the computer
           OR
           Follow the step-by-step DFU instructions with the program

	2. Launch redsn0w.exe by double-clicking on it.

NOTE FOR MACS
-------------

In versions of OS X above 10.5.6, DFU mode has been disabled by a bug in the
operating system that Apple has not yet seen fit to fix. A work-around for
this problem is connecting the iPod through a powered USB hub rather than
directly through the computer. It's also possible to use a software hack to
temporarily fix this problem to use this software. Please see the blog post at
http://blog.iphone-dev.org/post/74278878/close-the-stable-door for more
details.

	1. Either connect the iPod in DFU mode to the computer
