iphone wont reboot after cydia update?

[matdogg]

hi, i have an ipwned iphone running on 2.0.2, and when i went into cydia today , there was a thing telling be to upgrade four things. so i did, and silly me, i guess i shouldnt have, because when it was done downloading it said "restart springboard" so i clicked on it, and it took a while, but after five minutes or so it went to the booting screen. now it has been stuck on that screen for about two hours now, and no matter what i do, i cant get it to start up. every few minutes, the screen goes black like it is turning on, but then it goes right back to the booting screen. can i access the files via ssh or total commander and delete files that might be causing a problem? if that doesnt work, what will?

thanks a lot,

matt w.

is there any reason you are not on 2.2? everything is way better and much more stable. you might want to start there

Unfortunately, sounds like your gonna have to restore

okay, how do i do that? i was thinking about upgrading to 2.2, but didnt quite know where to start. do restore with itunes first and then use winpwn to unlock and jailbreak it? what is the best software to use for unlocking/ jailbreaking? sorry if im bombarding you with questions, im worried for my poor little iphone. lol
