Phew … i feel much better now. After almost 2 hours toying around with Winpwn, worrying my phone ends up a brick, i finally can bypass the 1601 error when restoring the custom firmware. FYI i followed the guide on theiphoneproject and used winpwn 2.0.0.3.
If you can create the firmware but have trouble installing it, [...]
A recent attemp of Ebay to improve their system (i only know for Ebay Germany, but those policies would be applied worldwide IMO ):

I did a terrible mistake two days ago when tried to compile and install the glibc library. Of course the process failed and left me out of the cold without any option to restore back to previous state. Every commands in ssh except “cd” throwed back at me this:
relocation error: /lib/tls/libc.so.6: symbol _dl_out_of_memory, version GLIBC_PRIVATE [...]
Amazon has introduced a new API for S3 to store data in it’s Europe datacenter ( with higher pricing, of course ). I decided to make a small test to see if the higher price worths the money, and here is the result:

–17:28:42– http://testmeplease-eu.s3.amazonaws.com/100mb.bin

This laptop has a Broadcom 4311 wireless adapter and it doesn’t work under openSUSE. An ifconfig eth1 up shows
SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such file or directory
It turns out that we must patch the firmware although the bcm43xx driver is included in kernel 2.6.22:
wget http://downloads.openwrt.org/sources/wl_apsta-3.130.20.0.o
wget http://linuxwireless.org/download/bcm43xx/fwcutter/bcm43xx-fwcutter.tar.bz2
tar -xzf bcm43xx-fwcutter.tar.bz2
bcm43xx-fwcutter/bcm43xx-fwcutter -w /lib/firmware wl_apsta -3.130.20.0.o
Reboot, and voila … there is wireless

I must say incredible good looking. Even better than Windows typography. Heck, if Ubuntu’s fonts were this good … Maybe because of the 19″ monitor ?
The only thing you need to do is to install MS font pack and the default dpi setting need to be tuned. But it looks so good that I’m thinking [...]
Errm … as we already know, our admistrator account (the one that we use to log onto Vista) doesn’t really have access permission to all over the system. So when you do make install in cygwin you have permission error. The workaround is to activate the real Administrator account:
Right click on Computer and choose Manage. [...]
First, you must install OpenSync, an open source synchronization framework at http://www.opensync.org/wiki/download, either compile from source or use the pre compiled packaged for Ubuntu from this repository. Please note that the version numbers of OpenSync and it’s plugins must match. I installed the following packages:
OpenSync
Msynctool
Evolution 2 plugin
SyncML plugin (this plugin requires libsyncml)
After finishing the [...]
