    Ubuntu has a screwed up su (funny as hell actually, not even close to UNIX like system).. so you have to run sudo su.

    I realize why you're having problems; you're not starting oibc.
    oibc will communicate with your device, where nor_read is an actual command.

    Seriously.

    There is nothing hard about installing OpenIBoot and booting a kernel on an iPhone.

    Why is everyone having so much trouble? It took two minutes on both of my computers to get everything set up so I can start messing with things.
