iPhone Dual Boot / Jailbreak Howto

The dev team has been using dual-booting to jailbreak the iPhone for several months now, however now that several more advanced techniques have been developed (many of which are still private), I thought it apropos to release this cool hack for those who would like to dual boot multiple versions of the iPhone software (or other OS’s) from their handset. It’s a neat little hack that I think might be useful for developers playing with 1.2, which appears to disable the radio (phone calls).

Cool hack indeed. It’s somewhat of a complex process requiring technical know-how. If you’re unfamiliar or uncomfortable with command line, don’t bother attempting this. Otherwise — go nuts!

Kudos team.

first off, nice name….2nd….in case some software has incompatibilities with other firmwares…some programs wont run on 1.1.4 but will on 1.1.3, etc….and i know this is a few months after, but hardly anything runs on 2.0 and 1.4….so its good for compatibility of programs
