I'm going to tell you how I installed roxbox ...5 different times and could not get any of them to work...maybe you will see something I am missing...

1. I downloaded the zip file "the current Build" I then extracted it over my f40 gigabeat..I confermed that I had a file in there labeled  .rockbox

2. I downloaded the fonts and unziped them over my gigabeat (DriveE)

3. I went into the Gigabeat folder opened the FWIMG folder and saved and then renamed the FWIMGo1.dat file to FWIMG01.DAT.ORIG

4. I then downloaded the bootloader for my gigabeat and I moved it to the FWIMg folder.....

I pulled out the power supply for my gigabeat, disscontected the usb cable powered it down shut off the battery switch . I waited probally a minute turned the battery switch back on powered it up, and got the error messege. This happened to me 5 different times..I am probally doing something obvious butI sure don't know what...

Thanks for your help.




dylstar:
any help would sure be appreciated...I am not real good with computers but I think I am navigating around by f40 fine ....I got it back and running 5 times.... :)

dylstar:
ok, I guess no help here....rockbox looks like a very cool system that is why I keep trying to get it.  If someone would be patient and give me some ideas I would be gratefull! I will be the first to admit I am not the greatest with the p, but I think I know enough to get this done with a little help.

Thanks

AlexP:
1)  Please do not double, let alone triple, post.  This is in the posting guidelines.

2)  You have waited all of 26 minutes.  Please have some patience.

3)  What error message?  Things like that are quite important.

4)  You should have a .rockbox folder not file in the root of your player.

5)  Try rockbox utility as Llorean suggested.

dylstar:
I have no idea what to do with Laureens suggestion a little more detail would be helpful.

the errors were..no firmware found three times and nothing on HHD the nest couple times.


Yes I had a folder named .rockbox not a file
