[Q] rooting DL09 with a mac

[tearminx]

I was wondering if anyone had rerooted their fascinate using a mac since the recent OTA. I keep finding directions for windows but I haven't found anything for mac and apparently z4root doesn't work with DL09. Secondly, I'm assuming its going to be difficult to install CWM recovery since the DL09 update screwed up USB mounting. Does anyone have a solution to either of these problems? Thanks

You can use the same method as before with Mac and ADB to reroot... As far as CWM goes, I'm not sure on that one. I just used a bootcamp Windows partition to handle that

yep, I re-rooted using my mac. same exact process as the first time. nothing has changed.

Which method did you use the first time? Do you have a link?

I have the link at my home computer, but it's from android central's forums. there's a whole tutorial from a mod over there named Corey Streeter. if you can't find it, i'll post the link when I get home from work tonight.

even comes with a video tutorial.

personally, I found it easier to bootcamp partition and Odin it in
