rbutil - The Rockbox Utility needs testing
saratoga:
Just tried this on the Ipod 3G and it worked great.
jmdennis:
I do have admin rights on the PC at work and I could not get it to work. I had to use the old utility to install it. I even went so far as to format my iPod and reload it with iTunes before trying it again and no luck. I am glad it works for others but was not working for me.

So I understand correctly that
- it didn't work and you only got a "no ipods found" error
- using ipodpatcher worked fine
- you didn't change anything in between those two runs?
This is somewhat strange as rbutil uses the same code as ipodpatcher does ...
jmdennis:
I also was unable to use rbutil to do an uninstall of the firmware for rockbox. I was able to use it to uninstall rockbox folder but not the firmware using rbutil. I did not try ipodpatcher for this as I decided to reformat my ipod and restore is using iTunes before I did the install again. When I did using rbutil it showed no ipod found but ipodpatcher found it and was able to install the firmware with no issues what so ever.
