PwnageTool is an iOS jailbreak tool for Mac OS X that jailbreaks by creating a custom IPSW. You are allowed to change boot logos and add pre-installed packages to the IPSW. After an IPSW is created you can use it for restore using iTunes.

Creating the Firmware
PwnageTool takes the IPSW file and patches it, creating a custom version. This enables a lot more features such as pre-installed packages, BootNeuter (iPhone software unlock), custom packages and boot logos. This method is usually less secure than the quick exploits such (redsn0w, QuickPwn, purplera1n, blackra1n, etc.).

Problems
This method does have negative aspects. The most common errors are the 16xx range of errors, which mean that the either the firmware file is corrupt or you didn't put it in the right mode (Recovery, DFU Mode). Sometimes the problems could just be a computer problem such as the memory is full or the USB port is broken. The most common error is Error 1604 which means that the firmware file is corrupted.
Windows
PwnageTool is expected to remain exclusive to Mac OS X. As of October 2009, iH8sn0w, et. al. has announced that they made a project that will bring PwnageTool's functionality to Windows, called sn0wbreeze. [3]
