Clay ... I will give it a try to explain. Please excuse me if I am too basic ...
When you unzip the downloaded Captivate2.2RootPack it extracts the following files:
busybox
rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
sqlite3
su
Superuser.apk
Using the windows GUI, drag and drop those files under the "tools" directory created by the SDK installation.
(When you installed the SDK it created "add-ons", "platforms" and "tools" directories under where you installed the SDK.)
The path to the "tools" directory *will vary depending on how your computer was set up and where you installed SDK*.
You can see the path in windows explorer when you are in the "tools" directory displayed at the top of the windows explorer
window. If win 7, click on the yellow folder at the top of the window.
For example, my installed path is: C:\Users\Dennis\Desktop\android\android-sdk-windows\tools
Then launch cmd.exe by going to the windows START button and typing cmd.exe into the bar at the bottom.
type: cd /
type cd Users\Dennis\Desktop\android\android-sdk-windows\tools (the first part of this will be different on each PC)
Leave the CMD (DOS) window open.
Now you can copy each command one line at a time in the instructions at the top of this thread using your mouse and left click and hold to drag over it, highlighting it, and release and then right click to copy it.
Next you can paste that copied command into the CMD window by putting your mouse pointer in the CMD window and right click to paste it. hit the enter key to execute the command.
Repeat one line at a time till you complete all the steps.

This worked perfectly. Thanks for the noob "translation." I'm off to enjoy Firefox on my Froyo-flavored Captivate.
