It is not a permanent fix but it seems to work. I have posted the build on the following page :-

Try it out and let me know how you find it.

Can you please offer more details and a patch? Also note that we are strongly against the distribution of binary-only builds, you should always provide the source code when offering a custom build (as per GPL)
AlexP:
Not only are we strongly against it, but you cannot do it. You would be violating the GPL (and therefore Rockbox's licence). I don't mean this to sound aggressive, but I just wanted to point out providing the source is a requirement not a preference :)

Petur,
I will post up a diff later on.
Details are as follows :-
iPod 5g or 5.5g with certain cards throws up a PANIC ATA -1 error, the current build works ok on CF cards like the Sandisk Extreme III 16Gb but gives the error when used on the A-Data Speedy 32Gb.
Other symptoms of the error are, at boot up it hangs for about 10seconds at the boot up/splash screen and the backlight at 50% brightness.
Removing the following line from the ipod_video confirguration and reset section, cures it but this just a clunky fix. The root cause needs to be determined.
firmware/target/arm/system-pp502x.c
remove LINE 311 DEV_RS = 0x3ffffef8;
regards, Tarkan
