Can't load rockbox.ipod on 2G Mini

<< < (2/3) > >>

Llorean:
There's only one partition? That's absolutely not right. How did you convert it?

_david:
Windows asked me to format it, so it was that standard tool.

The OSX Disk Utility displays only one partition. However, using the "ls /Volumes" command, there are 2 Volumes shown:
"ADMINISTRAT" contains the .rockbox directory
"ADMINISTRAT 1" contains those Apple iPod directories.



yapper:
iPod Conversion to FAT32 under MacOS X is documented here:

_david:
@yapper: I tried this manual conversion method before. Worked fine, but afterwards the ipodpatcher refused to patch, saying there was no apple firmware found. So I restored factory settings with itunes and tried the Windows-format-&Rockbox-Util way.

Llorean:
Simply doing a windows format is absolutely wrong. You'll need to do the method linked on that page, or use a windows version of iTunes to restore the device. No other method is going to work properly, or be supported.
