iPod first generation install?
Llorean:
You just offered a what is, in essence, nearly functionally identical solution to what bidmead suggested.
bidmead:
Either way, it seems to me (at a safe distance from the code) that this would be trivial to implement, at least as an experimental branch. That way those of us with these 1Gen iPods can get into some real functional testing of the rest of the code, which would hopefully be valuable to the project as a whole.
Or we could continue to debate the philosophical value of various ways of detecting the hardware version, or not. This will sharpen our metaphysical skills and provide hours of harmless amusement, which surely is what projects like this are really all about... :-)

Take my suggestion as agreement wuth bidmead, then. ;)
I'm not sure if it's relevant, but what version of Apple firmware is on these 'problem' 1Gs?
Also, what is the content of the \iPod_Control\Device\SysInfo file? My 2G has a line in the file which seems to be the 'HW version':
boardHwSwInterfaceRev: 0x00020000 (0.0.2 0)

Again I agree.
Llorean:
Feel free to knock together a patch and share it then.
