    Default PPC Guide updates?

    Any chance of getting the guides updated for PPC/iPhuc users, as it can be a little confusing to go through the iPhuc guide and then have to figure out at what step to jump in on the other guides, not to mention having to substitute Terminal commands and such.

    I just think it would really help out noobs like me to have a dedicated PPC subsection of the OSX guides.

    Anyone want to second me on this?

    This guide worked well for me. Just use iActivator to Jailbreak.

    I did run into a problem when I attempted to run iPhuc.

    ./iPHUC gave me a "no file or directory with that name" error because there isn't a file with that name at the "cd phonedmg/iphuc/iPhone/trunk/iPHUC" path.

    Anywho, if anyone knows what I should do about that, please let me know. Everything else in the guides is golden though. I know many PPC users have modded smoothly so there should be more input from them soon.

    The guides as they are did work fine for me, though with a bit of a learning curve, as there's no clear demarkation of where to start once you've completed the iPhuc install, and what you have to substitute...for example, there is an iPhoneInterface folder in the iPhuc folder, so I didn't know to type ./iPhuc in place of ./iPhineInterface in the directions...I only figured it out through trial and error. I just think it'd be great to be able to take away that X-Factor by retooling the guides for us PPC users. As it is, I'm a little hesitant to try anything more complex than ringtones because I'm afraid that trial and error will brick my phone, even if only temporarily.

    I realize that PPC users are the lepers of the Mac community, that's why I thought I'd post and try to rally some support for more straightforward guides.

    I was kinda hoping that maybe someone who knows this stuff better than I do could do it. I've only gone through the process of installing a ringtone once and, like I said before, I'm a little hesitant to try anything more complex for fear of screwing it up.
