The quick steps are:
1. Go into Recovery Mode.
1.a. Turn off your Sansa.
1.b. Turn on the HOLD switch.
1.c. Hold the Record button down and push the power button. Don't let go of the Record button until you see "Welcome to Recovery Mode" on the screen.
1.d. Plug in the USB cable as directed.
2. Mount the drive.
2.a. If you have Windows, it'll show up as a USB Mass Storage Device automatically.
2.b. If you have Linux, you might have to mount it manually. (the device will be /dev/sda or /dev/sdb or something similar)
3. Copy over a patched bootloader.
3.a. You can get a working bootloader from ftp://wisard.no-ip.com/pp5022.mi4
3.b. Copy ONLY the .mi4 file to the device.
4. Unmount and unplug.
4.a. In windows, stop the device with the "Safely remove hardware" option. In Linux, umount /dev/sda (or your device).
5. It will update the firmware and reboot. You should be able to boot both firmwares fine now (remember to turn HOLD off).
It looks like a patch was recently submitted to subversion to fix the issue permanently. I will test that tonight or tomorrow and let everyone know.

That did it xoring. Thanks for the help and all the work you've done to make it possible.

Building a bootloader from trunk works now with no patching. I have is hosted in the same place as usual.

Bagder:
both bootloader and sansapatcher have been updated on the official download.rockbox.org site so following the "official" paths and methods should now work fine!

I followed your instructions for Windows, I know how to do it all, but when I download libusb from your link, when it is done downloading, I cam't unzip it it just says "do you want to save the file or have internet explorer try to find the program to run it" and when I use internet explorer it brings me to a page with links that don't do anything how do I unzip it? and also is there a way to uninstall it ? please post instructions it would help alot thanks.

By "download", I mean save the file, and then unzip it. And, yes, all you have to do is delete the folder. You are not installing the filter driver, all you need is the device driver.
