video ipod 5G 30GB, happily (for the most part) running RB since a month or so after I got it a few years ago.

started crashing more than usual after I loaded a recent latest build. progressively shorter windows of lucidity before going dark with only the the message in the subject line to gently berate me. tried loading a more recent latest build (r.14439-070823) with the same results. I hear the unit running pretty hard, the RB splash seems to last extra long, but most of the time it gets to the directory screen. I noticed that the unit does not stop running when it hits this point, even if I do not pick an option. It just goes around and around until that message appears.

unit DOES boot into appleware, so I was able to back up my files (7700+, mostly 64kbs m4a and 96kbs ogg) and load a select portion of my collection back in through itunes for a webless trip to canada that starts tomorrow.

hypotheses - too many files? simplex theme conflict? suggestions welcome - I have till about midnight EST if I need to hard reset and reload...

thanks
Todd

Chronon:
See if you can find a revision that causes this.  I.e. if all of the builds after a certain revision cause this behavior then it will give the developers something to look for.

btodd:
thanks for the quick reply. seeing all the issues to which 'unsupported build' was the start of the solution, I went through the unsupported builds list to see if any rang a bell. senab's seemed vaguely familiar so I loaded the latest (7/30/07) and it seems to have solved the problem - I let it run for five minutes or so and no continuous run, no crash...time will tell, but I think it;'s fixed.

sorry to bother you guys! love that new pen & ink theme, btw; and without RB to support it and the other tweaks, it wouldn't be. donated a while back - may be time to renew my subscription!
