I'm attempting to root my LG Marquee running the ZVC update to no success. I'm running Linux Mint and use the Security Research by Dan Rosenberg Linux version but get the following lines of code when I attempt to root. It is on USB Debugging mode and ready to rock. In search of any help!

sudo sh ./run.sh

I attempted it on a Windows laptop and also on Oracle's Virtual Box with Windows XP. I get this as the read out:
[R&D Test Tools Log File]

22:45:47 : Launching SW update
22:45:47 : Unpacking KDZ
22:45:50 : KDZ file extraced
22:45:51 : Files were extracted.
22:45:51 : LGMobileDL Load.
22:45:51 : Port = -1
22:45:51 : Connecting to phone
22:45:51 : PHONE WAS NOT FOUND!
22:45:53 : ===FINISHED===

I'm open to any help, would like to get this phone rooted. I have loaded up the LG drivers from the site.
