Error while loading rockbox

(1/4) > >>

wtfcody:
I am on mac and am trying to install rockbox. I have my ipod set to windows format. its the 30gb video. I used the easy installation method to do everything, using the rbutilqt.dmg to install. I clicked the full installation, as recommended, and when i restarted my ipod. It tells me to hold select+menu then select+play to get to disk mode. Ive tried installing it again but same thing :/

What am i doing wrong?

Edit: Ive even used the ipodpatcher to install the bootloader. ive tried everything i can think of now.

Febs:
You have only installed the bootloader. You still need to install a Rockbox build.

wtfcody:
This would make sense.

Kinda over looked that...

Edit: Wasnt that, I just installed the latest build of rockbox and i still get the same message.
This is what i get :


Rockbox boot loader
Version: 3.0
IPOD version: 0x000b0011
TOSHIBA MK3008GAL
Partition 1: 0x0B 28521 MB
Loading Rockbox...
Error!
Can't load rockbox.ipod
File not found
Hold MENU+SELECT to reboot
then SLECT+PLAY for disk mode.

Then your Rockbox build is not being unzipped to the correct location on the ipod.  The build should be extracted to the root directory, so that after the installation of the build, you have the following folder on your iPod:

\.rockbox

Note the leading period in the folder name.

wtfcody:
How do i unzip the build into the right area? Is there anything special i have to do (manual installation)? Or can it be fixed easily.
