Thanks for the reply SD. I figured that out this morning in the shower (I do my best thinking in there).
Here's a continuation of the question... I'm at work now... away from my Ubuntu machine... Can I follow the boot loader instructions for Windows? There shouldn't be a difference in daily use, right?
(edit)
Never mind... I stopped worrying and just did it. Worked great and I'm enjoying Rockbox on my iPod
