You didn't install Rockbox, just the bootloader. Please follow all of the installation instructions, not just part of them. Reboot into disk mode, and complete the install.

What does "sip file thingy" mean? Please read our posting guidelines, and type out everything you *have* done.

What part of the manual is really confusing? What steps have you taken so far, as Llorean had politely asked you before?

Please, please, please give us details on exactly what it is you need help with. We're not psychics, and we can't help you in any way without details!

Read the section in the manually regarding installing the firmware. Basically all you need to do is download the appropriate build from the current build page and extract it to your ipod.

For the record, a video on YouTube does NOT count as official installation instructions. We have already told you where to find install instructions in the manual.

And please READ the posting guidelines before posting again, you are repeatedly breaking many of them.  I already warned you about this is your other thread.  The rules are enforced here.

ok now how do i get music into the rockbox thingy?

Drag and drop it from the computer thingy to the directory thingy of your choice.  Or use the iTunes thingy and the Rockbox database thingy, as explained in the manual thingy.
