Mac terminal: operation not supported
« on: December 30, 2007, 11:12:03 PM »
I'm trying to convert my iPod to FAT32 so I can do the bootloader.  My iPod is unmounted.  I've followed all the instructions.  I get to where I do the thing in terminal, and I get this:

Quote
hambot:~/desktop blc9$ sudo dd if=mbr-video80gb-2048.bin of=/dev/disk2
Password:
dd: /dev/disk2: Operation not supported

What am I doing wrong?

You shouldn't have to log in as root, but either sudo or use an account with admin privs.
