I have an ipod video 30GB.
The ipod looks like the one on the right:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Ipod-comparison.jpgWhen I turn the ipod on I get:
"Connect to your computer.
Use itunes to restore."
I can see files when connected to my XP or Linux system.
I can play the MP3 files using XP.
However, when I use rbutilqt.exe or ipodpatcher.exe I get no ipod found. I have tried on XP and Linux.
What is wrong? Do I need to use itunes to "restore". My son says that will wipe the disk. The ipod belongs to my son, and he is sick of doing the restore. So I want him to try rock box.
I did copy the .rockbox dir to the ipod, but I can't install the RB boot loader.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
