Method 2 on the development page says that instructions for Linux will be added soon but that was 2 months ago.
I assume they would be something similar to this page but with a different image?

I've gone through these forums and searched Google to figure out how to root the MT4GS using OS X, and I'm coming up empty.
I've read about the route using HTC Sync, but that seems to be Windows specific.
People see to point to using revolutionary.io, but it only has a Windows and Linux install. The only suggestion I've come across is installing Ubuntu (or Windows, but usually Ubuntu) inside of Virtual Box and doing it from there.
So I'm wondering if this is the route I need to take or if I'm missing something in the tutorials that makes this easier than I think. I've gotten S-OFF and root on my last phone (G2), so I'm familiar with the process. I just seem to be having some difficulty with this phone.
Again, my apologies for posting yet another rooting question / thread. I just haven't found anything specifically calling out OS X and figured (read: hoped) this might be helpful to others.

Yes, you'll need to find a linux or windows machine to attain S-OFF on your doubleshot. As a big Mac guy myself, I found the easiest thing to do is to just partition your hard drive and use rEFit to manage a dual-boot environment with a widely-used distro like Ubuntu.
Alternatively, should you have a legitimate license for Windows, you can use the Boot Camp Assistant app in your Utilities folder to partition your hard drive and install Windows.
But right now there is just no [easy/clear-cut/simple/realistic] way to attain S-OFF using *only* OS X.
Hi guys,
I am new to the forums and just bought a Transformer Infinity T700.
I want to trial the system as is for a few weeks and eventually want to explore the possibility of dual booting to Backtrack Linux and using the system as a platform for penetration testing. Has anyone ever done this before? I can't see any related posts up here and have only read about backtrack being installed on older models.
Would greatly appreciate all feedback and any directions/threads I have missed to read for further information.
1. Use rabits' Ubuntu installation as a base
2. Replace Ubuntu parts with Backtrack parts (mostly the rootfs, and possibly the kernel, if you need a special config)
3. ????
4. Profit!!!
Hello folks, this is my first post on this wonderful site!! I am trying to Root my Micromax Canavas HD. I am new to rooting and infact the "Operating system" perspective of android, although I am an experienced App developer for the same platform. Right now I am stuck with Flash Tool not able to recognize my device. When I run lsusb on my terminal prompt, my device is correctly displayed, however when I run lspci I cannot see my device. Clearly I am missing the "Drivers" part for my device. What steps need to be taken in order to achieve root on Ubuntu? Where do I find the drivers? I tried searching around Google and XDA but I found only bits and pieces which never connect.
Hello all,
I want install Ubuntu to my tablet Asus Transformer TF101 as dualboot with Android. I found a lot of topics about this, but all are very old (about 3 years) and links for tools are down. Could you help me what way - tool, approach is appropriate in this time? I found several ways for Windows/Linux OS with different tools, I can use Windows or Linux - it does not matter, but I can not find currently right way and tool. Thanks for advices.
I don't think that there is "right way" for such dualboot. "Kexec" should do that, but as far as I know, there were no success of using it with TF101. However, there is "wrong" (but still working) way to reach similar result.
It is possible to create blob that flashes kernel/initrd of linux/android disto and reboot afterthat. It is one-time solution, however and it will require to flash same blob again after OS boot, but it is still better that nothing.

Anybody have an up to date / detailed guide for flashing android from linux? I have been searching but all are a couple years old or just arent relevant.
