@TG

The ipsw is the file you downloaded from step 1. This is the complete image of the ipod firmware. Around 150-200 MB or so.

umm.. . . yeah if you use redsn0w to jailbreak you really dont have to go in to itunes at all

1) download the fw to your desktop http://mac.softpedia.com/progDownload/iPhone-Firmware-Download-38026.html

2) get redsn0w from their website just google it
3) open redsn0w and click browse find the firmware and then follow the steps
