This is very simple If this does not work you can get Root by installing a Kernel that has been Pre-Rooted. Will not work on new 2.3.6 Gingerbread update, Works on 2.3.5 and under.
1) Download
2) Open SuperOneClick, Run as Administrator if needed.
3) On phone go to Setting > Application > Developement > Check USB debugging.
4) Connect phone to PC
5) On SuperOneClick make sure the "Exploit" is set to Auto, Then click root.
6) SuperOneClick should then root your device.
7) If you need any other help Send me a Private Message.

Recovery wont show up?
This happend to me just a couple days back. I flashed "Infusion-GB1.1" using "SGS Kernel Flasher" found on the Market, Then I used "Rom Manager" to flash CWM, Remember to use"GalaxyS i9000 when prompted, Then I rebooted into recovery. It worked, Try it.
Thank you, your hard work makes it easy for noobs like me. This makes it so I can go ahead and experiment and enjoy my Infuse, with a little (a lot) more confidence.
Does that link for the stock firmware you posted include the stock kernel and recovery (and can you flash it from any particular Android version/recovery/kernel combo)? I'm returning my brother's Infuse to complete stock so he can exchange his phone and I just want to be sure before I flash anything.

Thanks!
Its UCKD5, I used that to flash my UCKI4 back to stock and it worked. May not work for all people. I might have gotten lucky.
You can try at your own risk, and you can just flash to the new 2.3.6 GB, that'll be easier and safer.
I will further help if you do go with this and the phone bootloops or anything.
