Request: Step Instructions for Root on Mac

[want a droid]

So i rebooted my phone and its back to speed now. I did those two steps and after the second it says "./rage*.bin: not found"

So do I have to start all over and do those steps too?

$ cd /tmp
ls -l rage*

See what comes up. If nothing shows, then yes, you will need to copy the file again.

Ah ha you were right! One more line of text came up. Now I have the pound symbol.

I'll input the rest of his instructions and let you know how it goes. Thanks so much!

Ok so I am rooted! Once again thank you so much pool shark I couldn't have done it without you!

What do you I recommend I do now that I'm rooted. I plan on using SetCPU.

Glad I could help you.

The only thing I've done so far is rename some of the apps I didn't want so they don't show up and don't run.

I installed screenshot and wireless tether (even though I don't use it).

sorry to tell you this but if you don't know already the droid 2 has a locked bootloader and that means that for a while we won't be able to overclock our phones. For now we can only underclock and most of the time that just slows your phone down.

Unless someone fines an exploit or makes a big breakthrough we won't ever overclock the droid 2.
