This is the manual:

http://download.rockbox.org/manual/rockbox-ipodnano/rockbox-build.html

And this is the current build:

http://build.rockbox.org/dist/build-ipodnano/rockbox.zip

Unzip the file to the root of your nano, and read the manual for further instructions.

You might want to try using the installer, which will extract the contents of the Rockbox build for you:
