These are instructions on how to perform an untethered jailbreak of your iPad 1 on iOS 5.0.1 using RedSn0w for Windows.
Step One
Create a folder on your desktop called Pwnage
Download the latest RedSn0w from here and place it in the Pwnage folder. Likewise, download the 5.0.1 firmware from here and place it in the Pwnage folder. (Note: you do not need to download the 5.0.1 firmware if you are already on iOS 5.0.1)
Extract the RedSn0w zip file by double clicking it.
Step Two: (Skip this step if you're on iOS 5.0.1 already)
Connect your iPad to the computer and launch iTunes.
Select your iPad from the list of devices on the left. Now hold down Shift and click the Restore button. Restore is preferred as it won't create any wasted space on your iPad.
Navigate to the Pwnage folder on your desktop and select the 5.0.1 firmware ipsw. Click the Choose button to continue.
iTunes will now update your iPad to the new firmware.
Step Three
Launch the redsn0w application from the redsn0w folder we extracted earlier.
**Windows 7 users may want to try running the redsn0w executable mode as an administrator in Windows Vista compatibility. You can do this by right clicking the executable and selecting Properties from the contextual menu.
Step Four
Once RedSn0w opens click the Jailbreak button
Step Five
Plug your iPad into the computer and make sure its OFF then click the Next button
Step Six
RedSn0w will now guide you through the steps to get into DFU mode.
Hold down both the Home button and the Power button for 10 seconds.
Release the Power button and continue holding the Home button until RedSn0w detects the device.
Step Seven
Your iPad will now reboot
Step Eight
RedSn0w will prepare the jailbreak data.
Step Nine
Select Cydia from the list of options and click Next.
Step Ten
Your iPad will now be rebooted again and RedSn0w will begin uploading the new RAM Disk and Kernel.
Step Eleven
Once this is complete you will be notified that RedSn0w is done. When your iPad finishes rebooting (5 minutes or so) it will be jailbroken with Cydia on the SpringBoard.
*As usual a big thanks to the iPhone Dev-Team, Chronic Dev-Team, pod2g, and Geohot for their hard work and contribution to the iOS community.
