Yeah! iPhone Dev Team to the rescue, yet once again with the release of redsn0w version 0.8! This new version of redsn0w now works with the iPhone 3G S. Yep, so if you didn’t want to use purplera1n for whatever reason, then you can now use iPhone Dev Team’s Redsn0w!
From the Dev Team:
ultrasn0w unlockers — You all must remain particularly vigilant against upgrading your basebands, since doing so will kill the unlock (for most phones, there’s no going backwards in baseband version). Apple has gotten very serious with the latest baseband — they’ve removed 180 (!) commands in an effort to cut down their exposure to holes. So please always stay away from stock Apple IPSWs and instead use our tools as we release them. These tools let you update your firmware without updating your baseband.
If you’re a Linux user and had to use a Windows machine or a Mac machine to jailbreak your iPhone, then you may be very pleased to know that redsn0w is finally available for Linux!
Since Redsn0w version 0.8 has the same user interface as it’s previous version, the tutorial we posted a few days ago will be exactly the same for the iPhone, iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS aswell as iPod Touch’s.
And if you want to unlock using ultrasn0w, then read this tutorial
Download Redsn0w 0.8 from our iPhone Downloads section:
Redsn0w 0.8 for Windows
Redsn0w 0.8 for Mac OS X
Redsn0w 0.8 for Linux

Hi,
trying to jailbreak & unlock iphone 2g with redsn0w 0.8 it gets stuck with “waiting to reboot”screen and does nothing for a long time.
what is it that i am doing wrong ? i am using a mac.

I just updated the firmware on my 3gs to 3.0.1 and attempted to use redsn0w 0.8 for linux. The process seemed to go fine… but no cydia app appeared on the springboard (yes, it was definitely checked). I tried re-jailbreaking, and now redsn0w reliably crashes as soon as the phone is connected. I could post a backtrace if that would be helpful. Anyone else seen this issue or have any suggestions?
thx!
