iriver h320 question.

[undergroundx]

I just bought an iriver H320 i used to have an H10 in which i put rockbox on it. My question is can i go to the automatic build where it installs everything for you and do that to my mp3 player and have it working with me not doing anything to it. That may sound confusing on how i wrote that what im trying to ask is if i run that auto installation do i have to make patches or anything like that does this install do everything for me. Cause i was reading on installing rockbox for the h320 and it lookds complicated all this firmware change and U.S versions looks hard and i dont wanna screw up my player i just got so could i run the automatic one with no issues at all and not have to do anything and have a good version of rockbox runnning no problem?

The manual is a mystical wealth of knowledge.

Basically, there's one or two extra steps you need to do for the H300.

You have to download a firmware update from iriver and put it somewhere on your player you could find it. Then run RButil. There will then be the extra steps during the install. RBUtil SHOULD tell you what these steps are, but basically when you have it do the full install, you have to do a couple things to finish. After running RButil you have to boot up your player, into the original firmware, and tell the original firmware to do a firmware upgrade (I'm not sure where this option is). If you have a US player you may need to reboot and do this again.

If at any point you aren't sure *exactly* what to do, don't click on anything, but ask a specific question and someone may be able to help.

ok im going to explain on how i would do this can you tell me if its right or not. Ok i so i go into current build grab the iriver h320/340 build. I then extract it into my iriver"s root of the player. I then go to this link

http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IriverBoot

and grab one of those files not sure which one. And then i also copy that to the root of the folder

Then i go to

http://download.rockbox.org/bootloader/iriver/ and grab this file bootloader-h300.bin  also put that into the root of the player.
I then disconnect the player and go to update firmware and let it do its thing then reboot and rockbox should load up no problem?

No. Did you read the manual? Did you try RBUtil, which I clearly mentioned you should use in my above post?

[undergroundx]

of course i read the manual. Im just lost last all. I noticed on that page it says that the RBuitils is being updated and stuff and that you can go to rockboxulitliy does any of that apply like do i have to go here

http://download.rockbox.org/rbutil/win32/  and install anything? That or just use the default one that they have. Cant i just run the automated one and then eject it and have rockbox or do i have to do all the steps listed below. Cause i was just curious if all of them are necessary.

You can do the Automatic one, but there will be some extra steps DURING it, which is what I tried to describe in my post above. The automatic program should tell you what to do, as long as you take your time and read everything it tells you.

ok i will try that and if i have any questions i will come back and ask them.

Thanks for the help and sorry for the confusion. If i caused any./
