Ipod Video 30gb cf

Sooo, I am getting an ata error -1. I have read up on it and concluded that this is due to my bootloader not supporting cf. May anyone please provide me a link with which I may boot Rockbox? Many thanks! ;D

LambdaCalculus:
First, two questions:

1) What CF card are you using?

2) What CF adapter are you using?

I ask because I just recently CF modded my own iPod video and have been able to successfully boot Rockbox using an unmodified (e.g. vanilla) SVN build and bootloader via iPodpatcher. My mod was done using the iFlash MkII CF adapter and a Transcend 133x 32GB CompactFlash card.

I don't really remember(Its stuck in there), but I am using a somewhat slow Sandisk. Its only 16 gigs. Also the converter is a standard SIF to CF adater that I pulled from my UMPC. As a side-note, all of the iPod's normal functions work well, its just that loader 2 loads to a black screen and the ipodpatcher one works only with a modified build for Rockbox.

Don't care.

Don't understand.



Don't care about loader2 because loader2 isn't Rockbox software and we can not support it.
But really don't understand what you're trying to say about a modified build.  Likely it is just me.

LurkAzusa:
Many have the same problem with ATA -1 error on ipods using A-Data 16 and 32 Gb CF.  I had reported it in the bug tracker and posted a patch, but it was closed unresolved.

1) What CF card are you using?  A-Data 16 Gb

2) What CF adapter are you using?  CF-1.8"IDE Adapter Ver: VA1 from eBay
