1. The first step is to make sure that you have a jailbroken iPad. You can log on to Spirit jailbreak site and see how it is done. In case you have upgraded iTunes to 9.2, then you will need to use a patched version of spirit available on the Spirit Jailbreak official site.
2. The next step is to install SSH on your iPad. You can follow our step by step guide posted here to do so.
