Hi Difluggia, me again. Hope you can help me out one more time. I needed to redo the whole vox hacking/expansion. Everything seemed to go fine, as I now have a bit more knowledge of Linux, and Lubuntu also kindly gives me visual clues of folder locations much like windows, so i know where things are located now and can see when a lot of things go wrong. However, my end result this time was an unrooted but expanded sd card, with no errors detected. There was a deviation from your protocol, however, because your link for the Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip gave a server not found message repeatedly, so in the end I found another one from a google search, which appears to be the same size etc. A close comparison of your protocol and my terminal info shows this only? discrepancy - could this be where I am going wrong?
I looked through and don't see an obvious problem. If it boots but isn't rooted, I would expect the problem to be here:

Code:
root@office:/home/office/vox# mount -t ext4 update/system.img imagemount -o looproot@office:/home/office/vox# cp superuser/system/app/Superuser.apk imagemount/app/
root@office:/home/office/vox# cp superuser/system/bin/su imagemount/bin/
root@office:/home/office/vox# chmod 4755 imagemount/bin/su
root@office:/home/office/vox# umount imagemount
root@office:/home/office/vox# exit
That looks OK (particularly setting the permissions, where I'd expect the problem to be), so I'm kind of at a loss. I did, though, have a weird glitch after first rooting that I never did actually figure out (it "fixed itself"), so maybe it's the same thing?
