Hey all, just thought I'd share my recent success.

I used to be jail broken a while back, and decided to do it again with my 2G phone.

I had already upgraded the phone through iTunes with 2.2.1 .

I went through the steps and could not get jailbreak to work, and I found this forum.

My setup:

iMac with OS X 10.5.6.

What worked for me:

Simply getting an inexpensive powered USB hub.

After that, the jailbreak worked perfectly and I am back in business making the iPhone what I want it to be.

Hope this helps those with similar problems. and thanks to those who have posted all the hints and suggestions here.
