iPhone 3G jailbreak and unlock

PB got an iPhone 3G for unlocking.

Version : 4.2.1 (8C148)
Modem Firmware:  05.15.04
Carrier : AT&T 9.0
Model : MB702LL
 
Jailbreakme.com does not work with 3G - only with 3GS and above, I think. I gave him a link to pwnagetool, but he did it with redsn0w instead. He noted the following:

1. Could not download - redsn0w 0.9.6b6 managed with redsn0w_win_0.9.6rc16
2. http://www.idownloadblog.com/iphone-downloads/ gave the link to this version of the restore, which was
from apple's site.
3. redsn0w_win_0.9.6rc16 kept crashing. This forum post  helped with the following suggestion, which made it work.


After couple of minutes Redsnow just shuts down (disappears)
what cause this problem ?
first install only cydia. don't tick the update baseband

after jailbreaking then you can fetch baseband tick only update baseband.
4. Could not add source http://repo.ultrasn0w.com to cydia
followed the alternate repository given at  http://nabtron.com/ultrasn0w-repo-sources-for-cydia/3567/
