In iBoot you upload a file to RAM (no jailbreak required) and then change boot-args to boot it.

This is just a 'overall' explanations to give someone that is not involved a 'clue'.

Could please someone explain more specifically to enable an experienced user to follow the hack?

Ramdisk Hack

It's not difficult at all. You just send a file to 1.1.4 or lower iBoot (iphuc: sendfiletophone or something) then "change" some boot-args. -wEsTbAeR--

I believe that it is not difficult. But where do you put the file and how do you change boot args. And how you put the file there, because at this point it isn't jailbreaked yet!? -caique2001-

Re: Ramdisk Hack

We don't talk to the iPhone via AFC. We talk to the iBoot (Recovery Mode), which is implemented in iPHUC too. In iBoot you upload a file to RAM (no jailbreak required) and then change boot-args to boot it.

  • setenv boot-args rd=md0 -s -x pmd0=0x9340000.0xA00000
  • saveenv
  • fsboot

I'm not sure about the last command, you must try it. If it does not work, try 'bootx'.
