I think I broke my Sansa - can't find rockbox.mi4

Hey MarcQuay -- Thanks for touching base. :-) After I posted here, and finding no solutions (all a bit greek to me, actually), I did a web search for various Sansa e250 problems and quickly saw that I could probably reformat my unit. The third fix I tried worked (pretty good, huh?), so I got the unit working again--with the Sansa OS. Shoot -- thought I had the URL to the working fix here, but it's on the XP side of my MacBook Pro (which is where I had to go for the fix). I'll go get it and post it below. Would like to try Rockbox again when I have another few hours free (!). I'm thinking at this point that the automated install on the Mac side basically didn't work, so if there's anyone out there who got it to work on an Intel Mac, I'd love to hear from ya. Cheers!

Path to getting e250 working again as mentioned above (via recovery mode and reformat):

Should mention that though I'm a Mac user, recovery mode only works on a PC. Of course, any Mac user buying this unit has an Intel Mac anyway, so that is sort of obvious.

Will go and check Troubleshooting and Unbrick now and check back later to see if anyone has any input on installing Rockbox on Sansa 250 via Intel Mac. :-)

You don't need to use Windows to use recovery mode.  Its just a UMS disk, it'll work with any OS:
