MAC VM works to gen the image. I have an intel processor but it was easier to just download an already made OSX vmx.
I've followed the instructions, got ireb worked, I restored the custom firmware in iTunes, but when I go use tetheredboot it says the device must be in DFU mode to continue. How can it be in DFU mode if the power is plugged in? I put it in DFU mode and it sent the exploit, then I plugged the power in but it didn't work.
What's the catch?
**Edit**
Nevermind, I'm stupid. I thought you couldn't go into DFU mode with the power plugged in.

Thanks for all this guys. I downloaded a VMware image from a popular cove for pirates and it worked fine. What a pain in the ass.
