No, if you jailbreak it, you just break out of the jail in which all applications run. The OS running on the iPhone is almost the same as OS X, which is based on Darwin and Darwin uses some parts of FreeBSD. -- Jonathan [demime 1.01d removed an attachment of type application/pgp-signature which had a name of signature.asc]

David Vasek escribis: Hi, OSX has a system_profiler(8) command, which gives you a lot of information about the hardware: # system_profiler -detailLevel full It might help. But don't post the -detailLevel full output to misc@ as it is really huge, I think -detailLevel basic would be enough. As for the dmesg, isn't it written out somewhere by syslogd? Uhmmmit seems there is no system_profiler command. Is there any other command to get that information?

Totally offtopic: Reading the article posted on undeadly.org: http://www.informit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=1393496 I was thinking it would be cool to have an Iphone running OpenBSD... Imagine that: the most secure phone in the planet :-P Regards, Alvaro

Reading the article posted on undeadly.org: http://www.informit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=1393496 I was thinking it would be cool to have an Iphone running OpenBSD... Imagine that: the most secure phone in the planet :-P Man, I have an old 1st gen iPhone just sitting there... I would so put OpenBSD on it. Unfortunately, I wouldn't know where to begin :(
