You dont need Macports. I have an intel Blackbook and Macports wouldnt install so i found another tutorial that didnt mention Macports and my iPod Touch 2G has been jail broken for about 3 weeks now.

I used the files from the OP, and the used the directions i found here. ( I started where it says, "Now open terminal..." )

However, Cydia still isn't showing up even on the initial after-restore boot with just the stock programs. Do I need to treat it as a new iPod? Or is there something else I'm missing?

Settings-->General-->Restrictions

-->Enable restrictions

(enter your passcode)

Then

-->Disable restrictions

Cydia might turn up. I had the same problem with no Cydia or Installer showing up after a jailbreak, but I have a 1G iTouch. You can try with this though, it won't hurt, and it might help :)

Is this normal or do I have to do something extra to get it

It's normal. You can download Installer from Cydia, but I would advise against it. There's nothing you can get out of Installer that you can't get out of Cydia; whether it be themes, or tweaks, or music player replacements.
 
I think Cydia sucks there's other hacking progs out there that do a much better job.
 
I can't finish the installation for MacPorts either.
I have a 2.16 GHz Intel Core2 Duo on a version 10.5.6 mac.
Is there something wrong with my hardware or did i miss a step because im not sure how im supposed to install libusb

lol what happens if a first gen touch user does this

I wouldn't recommend it. It could work normally, or it could mess up your iBSS terribly. It depends on the nature of the differences in the machines and whether the code being sent is specific to the newer touch's cpu (most likely).
 
Success! Thanks a bunch. The instructions were great my only hiccup was trying to get the iPod into DFU mode. I was confused by the PwnageTool.app, after the custom build I continued to use PwnageTool to try and enter DFU. All I had to do was quit PwnageTool.app and DFU on my own and the rest was easy. This was a breeze thanks to these directions.
Cheers sOwl you rock.

Did you use the semi-tethered jailbreak or the tethered one?
 
I updated with a link for a tiger version (edit: +Panther PPC) of MacPorts and i'll soon be updating this with a guide on how to get installer. Sorry it took me so long... i was pretty busy :p
