I assume it charges normally when booted into OF, so it's just the install that more difficult than other ports.
this page http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/TargetStatus
says that the V is the same as the S, but I couldn't see any other info to confirm. Do you know if the install works on the V  in the same way as the S.
Thanks

That's basically it, yes

It says that the hardware components are the same. There could still be differences, and I've not heard of anyone running rockbox on a V.

hummm do I dare being the guinea pig when I don't know enough to get myself outa trouble.....

I wonder how a S build would turn out on a V since the screen is a different orientation. Any thoughts?

GodEater:
Don't try a S build on a V.

And if you have the slightest doubts, don't try to run Rockbox on the S either yet.

The links to the gigabeatS manual on this page http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/GigabeatSInstallation
are dead, does this "Work-inProgress" Manual exist?
