I did jailbreak and got iphoneinterface running, but when i get the iPhone:/# prompt and do the ls command, I don't see a System directory... all i see is:

iPhone:/# ls
.
..
DCIM
Photos
com.apple.itunes.lock_sync
iTunes_Control

does anyone know what could be wrong?

thanks! regards, tyler

I am seeing the same thing as well. I had to do a full restore in iTunes last night, but before that, I had put ringtones, carrier logos, etc just fine. I will try another restore again tonight to see if that helps & will post results

It means your jailbreak didn't work. Try downloading a fresh version and rejailbreaking. This has happened to me half a dozen times so far, and since I bought my phone I haven't had to restore once.

dumb question time: where do I download the fresh version of jailbreak? I have downloaded it from the Get Connected Wiki, and copied it into the phonedmg folder, overwriting the files.

This is what i see:

macbook:~ nick$ cd phonedmg
macbook:~/phonedmg nick$ ./jailbreak

Enjoy your newfound freedom. Thank the devs at #iphone next time you see them for making this all possible.
p.s. Like most other useful tools, this one may be dangerous if used carelessly. Always remember -- You brick it, you bought it.

p.p.s. I have no idea how 'My Humps' could possibly have gotten set as your ringtone. ;)

Not sure what I am missing as I was able to do this all weekend until this morning...On OS X, you have to jailbreak every time correct? I tried to Restore the iPhone earlier this evening, but that did not help either. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

what happened when you restored it? did you jailbreak it again? seems like your jailbreak went through okay, im not a mac expert , but from what your code spit out it looks okay, your ls does look weird though.

are you sure your itunes is completely exited when you run iphoneinterface

after the restore, I did jailbreak it, but could not get to the directory for the UISounds, Applications, etc. I can make the ringtones folder, but that's about it.

itunes (7.3.1) & ituneshelper are both closed according to the activity monitor. I have also tried restarting the computer
