I may do this later on when I've got some free time. How much space is used [combined] after having 2 firmwares? And how do you switch between them?

Ok. I'll probably try this later, not sure. I'm not good at commands and have never used iPhuc, so I'm gonna need to be extra careful. If I do, I'll post the results :D

Ok, I'm going out so I'm doing this later on when I get home in like an hour. But can someone explain this part:

"You'll edit partition 2 to decrease its size by the number of cyliners that s1 is + the delta size between s1 and s2 (usually 120 or 123). For iPhone, this is likely 153720 cylinders. Next, edit partition 3 to begin using the same spacing as partitions 1 and 2 (though this may not be necessary) and to be the same size as as partition 1 (153600 on iPhone, 76800 on iPod)."

What exactly am I doing here?
