Finally now that the dust has settled.. The installation process is slightly more complicated the first time around, and you’ll need to agree and understand HTC’s licensing terms.
No CM Updater support just yet, but that’s next.
Check out my thread on XDA for the scoop:

Tried fix_permissions and it said “can’t open ‘/data/system/packages.xml’: No such file or directory”
Any ideas?

In haste, I posted my prior comment, having not red the boardz very well. 4.1.999, fixed the issue addressed with bluetooth not pairing. Well done. Keep up the good work. I’ll read before posting next time

Hmm…I have 4.1.999 installed and my bluetooth unit still will not be discovered, let alone paired! Don’t know what’s up? Worked fine with 4.0.4…do I need to hard reset?

I upgraded two g1’s to 4.1.99 and then to 4.1.999. First they were slow. I had to upgrade my ext2 partition to ext3. I did this from cyanogen recovery console, 4.1 Go to console, enter/return, on the keyboard and typed the command, upgrade_fs next to the # and then pressed enter.
First make sure you have recovery console 4.1 installed. Use this, in the instructions for installing it from the terminal emulator make sure you type, su then press the return/enter then type in the flash command per the instruction.

Then you must be in the 4.1 recovery console, you access by holding down the power and home buttons while rebooting, got to alt-x Go to console)
in console press enter/return
enter the command upgrade_fs then press enter/return then type reboot and press enter.
I then downlaoded everything I needed and put them on my sd card and installed following these instructions.

Hey Dryale – what’d you do to get bluetooth pairing to work? Still not working for me in 4.1.999 Hopefully Canyogen fixes this in 4.2

I have my G1 rooted and using the Jesusfreke 1.5 rom image. How would I install the Cyanogen Rom image?

Hi, I’ve installed the most recent ROM on my MyTouch, however when I boot to safe mode and attempt to use the console to partition my sd card, I cannot use the console. I click “go to console” but then I get stuck, as the MyTouch has no built-in keyboard, so I can’t hit “enter/return”. I can’t pull up a keyboard by holding down menu either. Any idea what’s going on or how I could use console? thanks!

I have the same problem with my HTC Magic (aka MyTouch) … When select the console I get “” and cannot access a keyboard.. in fact the only way out seems to be a remove-battery power off!!

I don’t know how can I use the keyboard console.
The screen shows press enter… but, where is the keyboard?
