if the rockbox firmwear become perfect, should I using the .bin patch file? or just change(copy) .rockbox folder and file?
shotofadds:
The patched .bin (ie. the bootloader) only needs to be updated if there are significant changes. For example, if we improve the NAND driver to remove the "bad checksum" errors.
For other changes, eg. plugins and other general updates, just the .rockbox folder should be enough.

When it becomes ready for non-developers, there *will* (:)) appear a manual with full installation instructions. :)

I've made a change to the NAND driver, which may or may not improve reliability slightly (eg. the File Not Found, Read Error, Checksum Failed errors on boot). To test this, you'll need to compile and update both the bootloader and main build.
I'd appreciate if some of you guys could try out the new version over a period of time and report back in a few days whether the latest version is better, worse, or not much different to the existing version. Hopefully we'll see some improvement overall.
With this version I can unzip rockbox.zip to the player and boot into Rockbox straight away, without errors (most of the time!). No messing around 8)
ps. Apologies for the lack of updates recently, I've been rather busy in Real Life(tm) recently and I need a break!

I get errors like "File not found" and such when using the new rockbox.zip. It works when I replace the iaudio file the first time usually.
Keep up the great work shotofadds.
