Ok i just finished through the step you are talking about. You are saying to extract rocbox first or reboot first?

Sweet just extracted it THANK YOU so much for being so patient. In the guide they ask to disconnect it the normal way, is that just pulli the plug or ejecting it in my computer?

I assume you're running an official Rockbox build, and you have both the rockbox.ipod file and the /.rockbox/ folder on your iPod?

As I said, you can put the music wherever you want.
You didn't answer if you're using an official version.
Also, in the /.rockbox/codecs/ folder, there's one for MP3, right?

The official builds don't have a version number. You *are* downloading from Rockbox.org, right?

Then where did you get the v.9-17 number from?
Also, you aren't extracting right if you don't have a /.rockbox/codecs/ folder, as it's in the archive.
