We don't support anything but the official rockbox build and the instructions in the manual. If you want to use something else, you'll need to ask whoever made it for support.
The rockbox bootloader doesn't even load rockbox up it just says that the file rockbox.ipod can't be found (even though it's in the right place) the ipodloader2 boots rockbox however (boots into a non-usable state as stated)

The correct place for the rockbox.ipod file is in the .rockbox folder for a while now. This is how it comes in the build zip, you are not supposed to move anything. Why should it be offered in a different way?P.S: This is how it is needed for the official rockbox bootloader. I have no idea how the ipolinux one works so if you have questions regarding this you really need to ask over there... I don't need to know something about it since I don't even have an Ipod...
... rockbox even loads (it won't load the database or anything) so I'm assuming something else is to blame here.
Regarding this point, and only this specific aspect of your problems. Rockbox loading but "things" not working right suggests a mismatched .rockbox directory and rockbox.ipod file.This would be as the result of having extracted two builds, one which placed an old .ipod file in root, and a newer one which placed an .ipod file in the .rockbox directory.Let us start by removing all traces of rockbox, removing the IpodLinux loader, restoring back to stock Apple bootloader, and following the manual install instructions from the manual - no RBUtil for now.In that order, no skipping step. ASSuming your partition layout is stock, FAT32.

What is the partition structure of your iPod?
something is really strange with your partitioning -- the bootloader shows the data partition with 7130MB size, but on a 30GB Ipod this should be somewhat bigger ... also, I'm wondering why the Ipod version is reported as 0xffffffff.How did you install the bootloader? Using ipodpatcher as the manual installation instructions in the manual tell? Was there anything strange in the output when running ipodpatcher?

No, I don't mean the file system type, I mean the partition structure - the layout of the partition table. Could you post that for us?What OS are you on?
Ah, I don't exactly know how to do that on Windows. I just switched from Fedora linux to Windows XP last month
