I know for win7, you have to type adb shell (enter) before you can run the shell commands like that.... if that helps....

I type ./adb shell and hit enter. Got into ADB Shell but when trying to mount the system rw it wont allow me to do so.

I have root. I instead downloaded Root Explorer and renamed the file that way and then reflashed CWM. All is good now. This was my first time doing all this with a Mac since my PC is broken. Lessons learned!

Nah I had the .img part. it still says can't load.. when in fastboot it won't let me go to adb shell says device not found.. hm

I'm already unlocked will there be any wiping from here on out? or can i set it up and worry about flashing cwm and SU.zip later?
