Ipod 5.5G 80GB
« on: October 09, 2008, 04:28:04 AM »
HI,

Yesterday installed Rockbox complete installation.

This works perfect but today I connected my Ipod to a colleague's computer because he wanted to copy some files that were on the harddisk.

He removed the Ipod on the right way.

Now Rockbox is not starting anymore, the normal Apple system boots now.

What can I do in the future to avoid this problem?

This is because the Apple firmware does not actually shut down, it just goes into a sleep mode.  See also http://download.rockbox.org/manual/rockbox-ipodvideo/rockbox-buildch3.html#x5-290003.1.3
