Cjay:
When the "safe" method of putting rockbox on a Sansa e250R is developed, will i have to delete all my music from the player before I install it?

Also, i would like to know if anyone has a release date for this "safe method" of rockbox for the e250R. Currently, the method with Linux scares me, even if my Sansa has a 2 year warranty.

Thank you for you time.

LambdaCalculus:
This isn't really an installation question; more of a general topic. Please make a note of this.

The "safe" method for installation will be announced on the front page of the site and (quite possibly) the mailing list when it's ready.

You don't have to dump your music from your Sansa to use Rockbox. You can keep the music on it, and just build a database or navigate through it with the file browser. The manual explains this.

The only music that will not work is anything bought from Rhapsody, since Rockbox does not (and never, ever will) support DRM.

Cjay:
I understand, im sorry, but can i just get rockbox for the other features, except music, and boot to Rhapsody when i want to listen to my DRM music?

LambdaCalculus:
Rockbox supports dual booting, so you can still boot into the Sansa firmware if you need it for whatever reason.

Cjay:
I have one more question, will installing rockbox for sansa e200R, with rockboy, and themes and plugins, involve more than just unzipping files??

If it does can someone tell me what?
