You should be able to
- go the manual way described at this page:
http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IriverBoot#Patching_the_iriver_firmware
- fwpatcher runs with wine. I don't know about wine for OS X though.
- as a last resort, you could try getting hands on a (virtual) windows box for patching the firmware.
There aren't too much OS X users around, so if you can contribute to the installation for mac os feel free to do so.

ok I can try, but wine does not work on OSX or at least on powerpc platform, maybe the macintel can run it.
So it's gonna be a bit tricky to install it.

Well the source code for fwpatcher, and the other tools it's based on, is available. You could try compiling a native tool for your OS to do it.
