For the iPad Pro 12.9-inch and iPad mini4 models, when jailbreaking iOS14.5, 14.5.1, and 14.6, Error -20 will appear, which leads to the final jailbreak failure (as shown above). The reason is that some new versions such as 14.5 and the jailbreak tool checkra1n have problems with the driver kernel, resulting in the failure of the system to boot correctly in the last step. Here is a method that can successfully solve this problem.
Step 5. Press "Enter" on your keyboard and the Checkra1n GUI will be launched. Now you can do the normal jailbreak steps to jailbreak your device. If you've tested other devices with the -20 error, please let me know in the comment.

Essentially a person buys a prison laptop off eBay, tinkers with it to see if they can make it work, then tumbles down an enormous rabbit hole of astonishing things you never knew about tech in jails. That alone makes it sound really cool but the whole story, replete with neat pictures and help from other readers, just makes it the best thing I've read in a long time.
The person in question is zephray_wenting on X (or Twitter, if you prefer) and the journey begins with a look at the laptop in question: An older model of Justice Tech Solution's Securebook range. It looks odd at first glance but that's because almost every piece of plastic used is translucent, with the reason being...err...clear. You don't want anyone hiding something inside the laptop for another inmate to use or the like.
But other than just looking like a really cheap laptop, the next thing you notice is the fact the laptop immediately boots to a BIOS password prompt. Again, nothing too surprising, but it's at this point that the doorway to Alice's wonderland truly opens wide. There's no operating system, no storage drive, no USB ports.
At this point, I should imagine that many of us in the same situation would just recycle the laptop as e-waste and consider it just one of those things that happen when you buy random old stuff off eBay. Not the case here: Wenting leveraged all kinds of cool tricks to bypass the password and solve the problem of there being no hard drive or SSD, and eventually get FreeDoom up and running. Because of course it has to run Doom.
The former issue ends up being taken up by the wider Twitterscape, with other readers chipping in by trying to hack the password encryption via a brute force approach. As for the storage drive problem, that one only got stranger as the laptop contained a list of disk models that would be blocked by the BIOS.
Rather than trying to find one that would work, Wenting 'simply' hot-wired a USB hub into the laptop, utilising the USB signal off the touchpad's connector! All that hard work proved to be a success, as an Ubuntu installation worked just fine.
But the story didn't end there. The hard drive ban list turned out to be limited to those using a specific type of boot loader, so Wenting managed to get a permanent storage solution in place (which naturally just so happened to be a datacenter-spec SSD) and get a patched BIOS onto the laptop, removing the need for any further password hacking.
The truly remarkable thing about the whole journey is that the whole thing took place over a matter of days, or at the very least, that's what the date stamp on the opening image of the unhacked laptop suggests.
Sure, the whole story on X was posted on the same day, but the way it was broken up made it read like a proper tech thriller story: An opening shot to draw you in, twists and turns, a few near-misses, before the hero's victory at the end (in the form of Doom). And the interactions and help from other readers gave it such a wholesome feel.
Nick, gaming, and computers all first met in 1981, with the love affair starting on a Sinclair ZX81 in kit form and a book on ZX Basic. He ended up becoming a physics and IT teacher, but by the late 1990s decided it was time to cut his teeth writing for a long defunct UK tech site. He went on to do the same at Madonion, helping to write the help files for 3DMark and PCMark. After a short stint working at Beyond3D.com, Nick joined Futuremark (MadOnion rebranded) full-time, as editor-in-chief for its gaming and hardware section, YouGamers. After the site shutdown, he became an engineering and computing lecturer for many years, but missed the writing bug. Cue four years at TechSpot.com and over 100 long articles on anything and everything. He freely admits to being far too obsessed with GPUs and open world grindy RPGs, but who isn't these days?
