How To: Prepare your Phone to get Root
Featured ================================================================================= PROCEED WITH CAUTION Preparing your Phone to get Root- BEFORE ATTEMPTING THIS PROCESS I WOULD HAVE A FULLY CHARGED BATTERY OR THE PHONE PLUGED INTO A POWER SOURCE - 1 Format your phone's SD card to FAT32 mode: Hook your phone up to your computer using a USB cable and then wait for the notification to show up in your title bar of your phone. Click the notification, and then click "Mount". A new removable disk should show up on your computer. Right click it and select Format, and select FAT32 as the file system type.2 Download and unzip the RC29 image file, unzip the file and copy the "DREAIMG.nbh" file to the root of your SD card. Confirm the name of the file is exactly this: DREAIMG.nbh Location of the RC29 Image: http://android-roms.googlecode.com/files/DREAIMG-RC29.zip3 Turn the device power off. 4 Hold Camera button, and press Power button to entry bootloader mode. You should see a gray/white screen with instructions to flash your phone with the update on your SD card. If you don't see that, make sure you followed the instructions properly.5 As per the on-screen instructions, press the Power button to start the upgrade process. DURING THIS PROCESS DO NOT DO ANYTHING TO INTERRUPT THIS PROCESS!6 After the upgrade is finished, restart the phone (you can restart by pressing Home+Back) - You have now successfully downgraded your phone which will allow you to gain root access - To Continue the Rooting Process and obtain Root please go to Rooting your Phone | |

It says "not allow" (sic). I have an Optus phone from Australia, RC8. Have been struggling with the Cupcake update for ages already, as I use the phone only in Europe.
I solved that using the goldcard method described at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=485364&page=27 (post #263, see also my post #315 there). So, now step 2!
I found that it is very important that the DREAIMG.nbh file be the only file on the SD Card, and that it be the first file written to a freshly formatted filesystem. On Linux, first unmount the device if it auto-mounted it:
... Then:
... and now proceed with the installation via the SDL, as described above.
