3G iPod not found

<< < (2/2)

MacEvansCB:
Ok ... I get that now, but ....

Step b) says to use a partition map that EXACTLY MATCHES my iPod model.  
I don't see any entry for a 20G 3G iPod.

???

GodEater:
Sadly that would be because we don't get very many 3G users visit us, and to my knowledge, none of the development team own one - so we've never had the opportunity to get hold of a 3G MBR. I know someone at work that owns one - I'll see if they'll lend it to me for 10 minutes tomorrow and see if I can grab the thing off that.

MacEvansCB:
would the partition info off my iPod help? .... even if it is formatted for Mac right now??

MacEvansCB:
Just in case:

Only for curiousity purposes :)

Of course - the chap I know at work with the 3G didn't bring it in today. I've asked him to try to remember it tomorrow. Sorry for the delay!
