Help with rooting stock rom

HI guys
im new to the galaxy, been using the g2x for a while. i read all the guides here and on another forum and i still need some help. i want to root my phone, its with a stock rom:

That should do it. In case anything goes wrong always have a stock rom on your PC and remember to read on how to flash with Odin (Samsung tool to flash roms and kernel's)
Once u start flashing there is no turning back...it's that much fun

How to install Cyanogen Mod on stock Galaxy S

Hey guys,
This is my first post on these forums. I have a stock Vodafone NZ Samsung Galaxy S i9000 and am wanting to root it and install CM9 on it but have no experience whatsoever with this sort of thing so a bit of help would be greatly appreciated.
I found this post on rooting a Galaxy S but had trouble trying to understand exactly what I was supposed to do and which file to download.
I'm hoping someone here wouldn't mind directing me to the right files and explain what exactly I'm supposed to do to root my phone and then install the new ROM?

Visit My Android Collections link below and download the Ezbase Recovery kit with semaphore kernel and flash it to upgrade your phone to GB 2.3.6 and have CWM, than visit the developer page of CM ROM you have decided top flash and follow the instructions given therein to upgrade
