What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. ./adb reboot bootloader
2. ./fastboot oem unlock (x2)
3. observe process hang

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expect a successful unlock. Instead it's just a hanging process.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Google Glass Explorer Edition
Mac OS X 10.9.3

Please provide any additional information below.

I'm trying to unlock the bootloader. Per google's instructions, I should be 
able to do this with their "boot.img". The problem is that in order to get root 
and flash the boot.img, I have to unlock the bootloader which seems to be 
impossible on a Mac.

After rebooting into the bootloader and confirming that the device is fastboot 
visible, I run the "./fastboot oem unlock" command (tried both with and w/o 
SUDO). After confirming I wish to unlock the bootloader by running the command 
a second time, the process hangs. Output is as follows:

$ sudo ./fastboot oem unlock          
...

I have to ctrl-Z out of it to be able to resume working in terminal.

When searching for the issue online, this problem goes back to mid-2013. I 
can't believe there still isn't a solution for this issue.
