After a lot of trial and error, I've found a wifi tethering app that works on Verizon for root users on Mac or PC.
The "Wireless Tether" app in the app store works great. Just download, run, then click the giant wifi symbol to enable. You may get an error that says something like "started with errors, view the log". The log will most likely say that access control failed. Hit menu and go to access control and turn it on and off (or just off if it was already on). Then go to your computer and join your new network. Currently I haven't tried any security (WEP/WPA), but I'm pretty confident none of the tractors I'm driving by in central Iowa have wifi devices.
This works for Pete Alfonso's Rooted 2.2 ROM based on the test release, on a moto droid, and many other combinations.
Just to reiterate. A lot of people have problems with access control, just toggle it on and off to get things to run smoothly.
