    That IS the root of your SD. Just plop the update.zip into that first folder.

    the root folder is the main one, without going into any other folders as soon as you open the drive assigned to your G1. put the update file there, rename it to "update" without anything else.. no .zip or anything just the word by itself. and thats it. unplug the phone from the computer and start the update process by following the directions.

    easy!

    That depends on settings. If it complains, just add the .zip.
