Here is iTechNewsDaily bringing to you a tutorial on jailbreaking IOS 5.1.1 with the new Redsn0w B8
Works for devices:
iPhone 4
iPhone 3GS
iPod Touch 4th Generation
iPod Touch 3ed Generation
iPad 1
If your device is not listed this jailbreak will not work for you.
This Jailbreak is currently a Teathered jailbreak, such saying if your iDevice looses power due to a dead battery or rebooting it, you will need to re-boot into the jailbroken state using the Redsn0w tool.
Steps:
1. Download Redsn0w 0.9.10 B8

2. Download the IOS 5.1.1 IPSW for your device
Note for iPhone Users: Be sure to download either the GSM or CDMA IPSW Depending on your iPhone
3. Launch Redsn0w and load your IPSW. Go to extras, select IPSW and point it to the location of the IPSW for your device.
Note: If you are on Windows 7 or Windows Vista, right click on Redsn0w and select properties, compatibility, and set the compatibility to Windows XP and run Redsn0w as administrator
4. Go back to the main screen and click jailbreak, and put your iDevice in DFU mode by following these steps.
Plug your iDevice into the computer and power it off
Press and hold the home button and the lock button for 10 seconds
Release lock button, continue to hold the home button for 30 seconds or until Redsn0w recognizes DFU and continues to jailbreak your device.
5. Select “Install Cydia” and any other options that you would like (except install custom bundle)
6. Wait for device to fully reboot, and close outRedsn0w. It is very important that you close out Redsn0w after your device reboots!
7. Re-open Redsn0w, go to extras and click select IPSW, and locate the same IPSW. Go back to the extras screen and click just boot. Place your device into DFU mode again and let Redsn0w do its job.
Congratulations! You are now jailbroken on IOS 5.1.1!
Remember that every time you reboot your device, you need to repeat step 7 each time.
