That final error doesn't work for almost all installs, it's there for the rare occasion it would be needed. I'm working on a new script now.

mount: operation not permitted
failed to copy 'c:\droidroot\superuser.apk' to '/system/app/superuser.apk': read-only file system
Failed on 1.2 as well.. same error I reported above.
I can see that you added in all that text after the failed mount error that says "it should be done now.... if there was an error a couple of lines up thats normal dont worry"
well, after we get that we just unplug the phone, reboot it, as your app does not reboot it, and go into ROM Manager and still have no root access
BTW, we also tried that new "have you been rooted before option" and selected "yes" and it ran a command line window, closed window, then told us "only press OK AFTER the Droid has fully restarted" which implies your app should restart the phone, but the thing is, your app did not restart the the Droid? after we rebooted we hit "ok" and it ran the root app and again, we got that mount error and no root was obtained.
yes I did, but not sure of your point?
(1) I didn't dog the OP - I appreciate it and said as much and think he is on the right track, but not there yet
(2) it isn't really a 1 click tool at this time
(3) though the old school method surely works, I think it archaic and dated and a true 1 click - like Easy Root - is the way rooting should go. so the end goal of the OP and my points are on the same page.
(4) people are already trying this and coming back with follow up questions.. which just means, as of this time, it is not a 1 click root tool as a 1 click root tool is just that with no process questions and clarifications needed. point and click.
(5) I do my darnedess to now help others based on that experience I had, but 1 hope is the creation of another truly 1 click root tool to make it easy on everyone
watched the video and noticed that i dont get the same error as you. my error is as follows: mount: operation not permitted
failed to copy 'C:\Program Files\souproot\droidroot\Superuser.apk' to '/system/app/superuser.apk' : Read-only file system
reboot: Operation not permitted. so yeah need to make the phone a read and write file system but how is the question?
for people having problems, is this the same for you?
with 1.6 I click on run and it brings up the command prompt box and this is what it does.

It should be done now. Enjoy!!

that's normal so don't worry!

phone never does anything during the process.
phone isn't rooted.
phone never reboots automatically.

No prob guys, I noticed the trend (just got home from class) and I'm analyzing the code. For some reason my computer (I'm guessing because I don't do a complete un-root on droid before testing) doesn't have that problem so skipping the step I still have su permissions or something.
Anyway, long story short don't download until my next release. I may have to revamp the code completely from scratch (again).
Sorry about all the problems and thanks for your patience!!
