If you read the manual, dual booting is explained in this section. There's no need to move the .rockbox folder off of the iPod at all.

Put your iPod into disk mode as instructed, then copy your .rockbox folder back and follow the manual's instructions for dual booting.

Also, please change the name of the topic thread to remove the profanity.

Thank you very much! I am sorry about the topic's name, its just that this is the second day after I got my iPod out of the repairs.

I changed the title of the topic since it gave the impression that Rockbox screwed up your iPod.  In reality, you just didn't know how to either properly dual-boot or uninstall.
