linuxstb:
Did you follow the instructions to convert your ipod to FAT32?  They are referred to in the first section (pre-requsiites) in the install chapter of the manual.

You first need to force your ipod into disk mode (hold MENU+SELECT together for a few seconds to reboot, then immediately press and hold SELECT+PLAY).  Once in disk mode, you can connect to your Mac and run ipodpatcher again, and select "u" to uninstall the Rockbox bootloader.

how do i do FAT32?
