(1/2) > >>

Hi i'm new to Rockbox and to md5Sum!!
When Trying to auto install from the utility get the message "could not MD5Sum original firmware"
I have tried a manual install but although Rockbox appears in the root it does not run.
Unit runs fine using the Iriver firmware  
Appreciate any suggestions
Thanks Guys

LambdaCalculus:
Did you follow the install instructions in the manual?

Also, what operating system are you using, and are you downloading the proper build for your device? There's a build for the older iHP-110/115 models, and the iHP-120/140 models.

AlexP:
Have you downloaded an official firmware from iriver for RBUtil to patch?  If not, do so, if so, it sounds like it is corrupt, try redownloading it.

Thanks for the quick replies
I'm running in windows xp and have downloaded the correct version of Rockbox
- have also downloaded and installed (twice) an official firmware version (V163) from Iriver
but still getting the same problem

AlexP:
I'm pretty sure you need 1.65 or 1.66, not 1.63.

Edit:  Hmm, apparently 1.63 is OK (http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IriverBoot#Checksums), but I'd try 1.66 anyway, I know that works.

Edit 2:  OK, I just tried both 1.63 and 1.66 (EU) and both patched perfectly.  Admittedly I downloaded then from Rasher's site (http://www.rasher.dk/rockbox/iriver-firmwares/) as I couldn't be bothered to navigate the hell that is the iriver site.
