The fastest and easiest way to root a Galaxy S is to flash a custom, prerooted kernel.

Bur if you want to flash, say, Darky's ROM (a custom ROM), you can download the 10.2 which is 2.3.4 based. You can either:

1) flash the DarkCore kernel through Odin to get ClockworkMod recovery through which you flash the Darky's ROM 10.2 EXTENDED EDITION, or

2) flash the Darky's Rom 10.2 RESURRECTION EDITION through Odin - WARNING: flashing the phone this way wipes your system!

Now you choose which one you want :)
