If I find another unit, I'll come back in full swing for testing and contributions again.

That would be great. I don't know if i'm able to finish what i have started, cause my hdd6320 is unfortunately partially broken.

The bootloader doesn't want to load the OF, so maybe it would be better to wait for a solution before adding it to the Rockbox Utility?

IIRC from the time I had the HDD6330, USB worked quite well from within Rockbox on it. If such is the case, perhaps we could just ditch any notions of dual-booting and make it a proper firmware replacement on this device? Such is already the case for the iAudio devices and the Gigabeat F/X. Thoughts?
scallopedllama:
The OF Requires that the user sync the device with their computer using an outdated version Windows Media Player, 10 or 11.
I think that this alone would make it ok for Rockbox to act as a full replacement of the OF, since the OF isn't even supported by Philips anymore.
Also, I think it'd be desirable to get plugins too.. no keymaps for them yet
LambdaCalculus:
I need another HDD6300 in order to work on plugins first.
Luckily, and unlike the SA9200, the LCD on the HDD6330 is the same resolution as a few other devices (220x176x16), so all it takes to get plugins working is just to add in keymaps. Once that's done, enabling them should make the port fully functional.

Today i found the magic numbers in the registers (r0,r1,r2,r3) in order to boot the original firmware from the Rockbox bootloader. I used special mi4 image (the buzzer was clicking and gave me the right values, bit after bit). I will commit it ASAP. I'm not sure if i can do it this week, cause it's freeze time.
