What kind of skills are required to get started in jailbreaking? I am guessing some assembly and C would be helpful. Not even sure what to search for to get started.
I am not really interested in jailbreaking iPhones, but I have some equipment from the early 2000s running software that are no longer maintained that I'd love to tweak.

From my experience looking at open source jailbreak repos, I’d say writing commented, maintainable code with good error checking is not a required skill.

It's just reverse engineering. You want to find some kind of actions that let you cause non-standard behavior in the implementation of privileged libraries.
