Dual Boot ipodpatcher
xnifx:
Hello, I recently installed Rockbox on my 30GB iPod 5G, from a linux platform, and I was reading in your manuals about the Rockbox Bootloader. I saw that it mentioned a "dual boot" option, but I saw nowhere in your instructions how this could be accomplished. I did the manual installation by the way so I didn't use the Rockbox Utility to install the firmware. I was just wondering where the bootloader configuration file was located so that I may possibly modify it to boot into ipl or Apple OS on command. Any help is GREATLY appreciated.

Oh okay. I must have missed that. Thanks. Also, is there a bootloader menu I can access? I once had an ipodpatcher file on my iPod that had a menu where I can access multiple firmwares. I could manipulate the menu items by changing the configuration file. Since ipodlinux.org has been down, and my life got more complex, I have since lost all of my previous iPL and Rockbox and Doom.wad files etc. so I haven't been able to find the bootloader that I had before. Do you think you can help me there?

That is the ipodlinux bootloader, which is not supported here.
