This thread is to summarize the current root process and the link to a custom recovery.
Root:
The root is based on the new zergrush exploit.
First download the USB driver from the LG site. This is the driver for OV but it will work fine for OS.

Use the above USB driver instead of the LG Esteem driver and follow the instruction in this root instruction.
Once the process finishes, your phone should be rooted.
Recovery
Here is the link to a CWM recovery for OS made possible by BobZhome.
Enjoy.
