there are menu items like "cut, delete"... called with long pressing menu button. but they doesn't work. is it because of "read-only" thing?

Yes. Nothing, which needs write-access can be done. This means also cut & delete.

Hi Group !
I have one or two questions and, two or three observations...
First (neophyte) question: I know Rockbox bootloader is patched in the original firmware with mktccboot, does that mean Rockbox is like a "parasite" application ? I mean does Rockbox send commands to the hardware through the original software or directly to the hardware ?
Second question: I remember having seen somewhere on this site something about database corruption being related to a bad bootloader patching or something... Is that what I'm experiencing on the "original firmware side" (complete database corruption, like 'hpfmn' wrote) or this database corruption is really just from the new Cowon 2.59 firmware ?
Ok, now some observations I made (could this help) on my Rockboxed (v. r20457-090322) 8GB D2:
1- when the backlight goes to sleep there is still a faint (so faint !) amount of light emitted when using a white background theme (like iCatcher)
2- I still got the two-bottom-lines-at-top problem, like once in 20 boots or so (random for sure)
3- I have a weird problem when getting the power button back from the locked position: most of the times the player goes to a paused state but gets back to the main menu and can not resume playing. A less frequent symptom is the player shutting down after a couple of clicks.
Aside from that, Rockbox is now very usable on the D2 !
Thanks for putting so much effort in this great application !!

As I'm sure you know, user testing can be incredibly helpful even in early stages of development.
If there are people who would find it useful, I see no problem providing a mktccboot binary (with associated bootloader.bin), especially given that we already provide a pre-built rockbox.zip and tcctool, too.

Hi, I am looking for pre-built mktccboot (with associated bootloader.bin). I would try Rockbox on my D2 and haven't develop's environment.
If it is possible..... many thanks.

Okay I don't know but I think it uses the hardware directly and is just patched into the main firmware to boot the whole thing up ;)

I Just spoke about the "normal" Datacorruption of 2.59 (are there more Problems with this release?)
and I would just like to have a nice platform to stark hacking :) - but I think my skills are to low for drivers
