+DISCLAIMER:
+
+ This software attempts to flash your Galaxy S device. The very nature of
+ flashing is dangerous. As with all flashing software, Heimdall has the
+ potential to damage (brick) your phone if not used carefully. If you're
+ concerned, don't use this software. Flashing ROMs onto your phone may also
+ void your warranty. Benjamin Dobell and Glass Echidna are not responsible
+ for the result of your actions.
+
+
+
+These instructions are for OS X operating systems.

+ extract them all to the same location.
