Hello All
If this has been asked I am sorry. I did do a search and did try a few things.
I installed rockbox following the manual installation onto a 80 gig 5.5 gen ipod video. The install went well but there may have been a glitch. The manual says to install the bootloader last which I did. At the end I really can not recall at this time it said that you may now disconnect the device as normal. I stopped the ipod using the safely remove hardware button. As soon as it stopped before I had a chance to unplug it. The ipod rebooted into rockbox and the computer came up saying found new hardware to install insert disk. I just hit cancel because I do not have a driver for rockbox.
Things I have tried
Reset and started in disk mode. Plugged in the ipod and I can see it as a drive and the ipod says do not disconnect. I stop it using safely remove hardware button and it says ok to disconnect. When I disconnect it that screen will not go away. The only way to get out of the ok to disconnect screen is to reset the ipod again. Is this normal?
Then I looked in itunes for enable disk support or something like that . The itunes I have does not have that under edit preferences ipod.
I have rebooted the computer several times. A few times before going into disk mode I deleted it in device manager the rockbox ipod with a yellow astrick on it then rebooted.
Also a few other little things.
Questions
Do I have to have itunes open when I connect it? I currently have itunes set to not startup when the ipod is plugged in.
Thanks to all.
