After that remount /system rw:
#mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
then I grabbed Superuser from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=449536
you can't use the script he describes there exactly, adb won't have root permissions, so instead push su executable to /data/local/tmp where your rooted shell is cwd still, then from the rooted shell copy su to /system/bin by
#cat su > /system/bin/su
and follow the rest of the steps in the script to adb install Superuser.apk
I then tested with Titanium backup and it was able to install busybox! You can use Titanium to update Superuser to the free market version if you want.
Gold (aussie slang for all working) SU fixed and operational.
What I did:
- split open with apktool
- hex edited the gingerbrake.png change HONEY to HRI66
- added the updated su from xoom (thanks guys for coming to help me!)
- recreated the apk with apktool
- resigned with apkmanager
- pushed to /data/local
- launched apk install using oi file mananger entering the whole path to apk
- set tablet in portrait mode and locked rotation
- run the gingerbreak tool (it installs the root, updates SU and installed superuser.apk)
- confirmed root in terminal
- install busybox
so going to attach my version.. usual rules apply, if you break then best efforts but in the end it's was up to you to click 'root'
will modify this message to include the thanks to all the crew... in the morning.
