Can't load rockbox.ipod on 2G Mini

(1/3) > >>

_david:
I successfully installed the Bootloader and Rockbox using the Rockbox Utility, but booting it says:

Rockbox boot loader
Version: 2.0
IPOD version 0x0007000
HMS360604D5CF00
Partition 1: 0x0B 3866
Loading Rockbox...
Error!
Can't load rockbox.ipod
File not found
Hold MENU+SELECT to
reboot then SELECT+PLAY
for disk mode

I already looked whether rockbox.ipod is in it's right place - it is (in the .rockbox folder on the ipod's root directory).
I also tried with copying another build (r18007 instead of r18026) onto the ipod, but it didn't boot either

Any ideas? Is it a problem with the bootloader?

soap:
I do not believe there is any problem with the bootloader.
Is there a rockbox.ipod file in the .rockbox folder?

_david:
yes, it's in the .rockbox folder on the ipod, terminal says:


dp:.rockbox toy$ ls -l rockbox.ipod
-rw-r--r--  1 root  admin  482924 12 Jul 06:26 rockbox.ipod

Llorean:
What filesystem is your iPod formatted with?

_david:
I changed it to FAT32 using a Windows VM.
This is the ipod's disk info:

dp:toy toy$ diskutil list /dev/disk2
/dev/disk2
   #:                       TYPE NAME                    SIZE       IDENTIFIER
   0:     FDisk_partition_scheme                        *3.8 Gi     disk2
   1:                 DOS_FAT_32 ADMINISTRAT             3.8 Gi     disk2s2
