I was writing this up for a friend.. figured i should put it up here for fellow noobs...
Basically: Yet another HOW-to for rooting
It uses the same method as http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=858996
This is just noob friendly version that emphases more on environment setup like adb and drivers etc...
Admin/experts/trolls/Mods/fellow XDA users; are all welcome to edit, correct and re-post a better version..

If you do download it and like it.. a thanks would be nice )
I've found the root guide on the cyanogenmod wiki to be the best step-by-step guide.

Hi,
I have started to go thru the Kaiser ROM Kitchen Tutorial and have one problem and a question to ask...
Step 1 states:
Uncompress kaiserkitchen_01-20-08.rar to \kaiserkitchen.
It is highly recommended you extract this and all additional applications to folders on your C: drive, e.g., c:\kaiserkitchen. It is not necessary for this tutorial, however it will be necessary to use Ervius Package Creator in the OEM Package Tutorial.
You'll notice that there is a file called !!!readmefirst!!!.txt within the uncompressed files. This file contains additional information on how to cook and I suggest reading it after you complete this tutorial as it contains valuable information about cooking, but some steps will conflict with the steps found here.
You should have \kaiserkitchen and two subfolders, ?BaseROM and Tools
I have done this but after uncompressing said file I only have a Tools folder, where be the BaseRom folder?
As a side order.....
I note the tut uses a reference to using radios in the .nb format. How can I use those that are in the .nbh format?
In fact, I get problems when I uncompress the files Alex[1].v5.WM61.HTC.3.03.ROM.Folders.part1.rar, part2 and part3?
Part 1 goes OK but part2 and part3 just comaplin all the way that the files exist do I wnat to overwrite etc?
The tut says I should then I five folders in kaiserkitchen, I have many more than that?
Now either I am doing something wrong (probably) or the guide is out of date?
Thanks

Please post this question in the thread about the Kaiser Kitchen. Creating a new thread with your questions from an existing thread is against forum policies and will get you a lot of negative attention, and very few answers. I think you will find the people around here a lot more helpful to you if you post your questions in the appropriate section.

ScatDawg is correct. Since you found the Rom Kitchen you know about it's thread. Your question belongs there. It does not warrant a new thread.
If you want forum members to respect you then you must respect the forum.
can I root my thunderbolt using a mac computer? Also can anyone recomend a website for reading up.on how to root my device and how and where to get cuatom roms?
i find it kind of odd that you're asking such a question on xda ....
(look around, it's all right here. check out development and q&a to learn how)
Short answer - yes
Information on rooting and custom roms can be found in the "Thunderbolt Android Development" forum.
jcase has an excellent step by step thread on the rooting process titled "[ROOT] MR1/OTA PermRoot + Unlock Bootloader - Safer/Easier 5/12/2011"
You will need the Android Debug Bridge (adb) shell installed on your mac in order to use jcase's process. Google something like "how to install adb on a mac" and you will find all kinds of helpful information. Downloads and manuals are also available at developer.android.com.
DemoManMLS has a thread on thunderbolt roms and kernels titled "The Official Thunderbolt ROMs & Kernels Listing v2.0 (Updated 5/28 9:45 PM CST)".
Hope this helps get you started.
There is also a thread in Android Development for OSX (say that 10 times fast). I don't know if it's the "easier/safer" method, but I know it'll get you the platform tools you need.
Hello friends,
I am a Mac user with no access to a real windows machine (except for boot camp)
I came across the following article which may be useful to Mac users with HTC android phones.
Since I can't post external links, open a browser and using google search for "Noob guide for Rooting and Flashing using a Mac"
The guide was not useful to me since I have a Samsung phone.
Let me know if this article helps you.

Most anti-productive idea ever!
To further answer, no. I don't believe that is possible.
O then k ... any GOOD step by step guide for dummies , please ?
I would need to that because I would like to make a fully functional simple Apache+PHP+MySQL installation.
Thanks!
Sorry...I'm not really any help here, but here are a few things I have been watching...

You could try searching first before posting threads.....

Thanks meanm50, I kew these programs, but no solution for me.
MemoryController, I have used the search and I'm actually using a Ubuntu image (Apache + PHP painfully installed, I'm with MySQL now) but I didn't found a step-by-step among a lot of post that guides me with libSDL, sorry.
Good luck!
Actually there are threads for both qemu and bochs.

I started this thread hoping to help out newer Infuse users to find their unlock codes.
I noted that many new users are looking at the old threads and not reading thru to get to the easier method found later in the thread.
Here are some links.
