Installation / Removal > Rockbox Utility

installer thinks I am using a macpod?

(1/1)

nextyoyoma:
For some reason, the installer thinks I have a Macpod, but I have restored it on a windows system, it is in FAT32...what am I missing?

GodEater:
give us a dump of the first 512 bytes of the disk and we'll have a look!

linuxstb:
You could try using ipodpatcher (linked in the "manual installation" section of the manual).  If this detects a macpod, it allows you to override and install the bootloader anyway.

But I also recall a bug in Rockbox Utility that will mis-detect an ipod as a macpod, and in those situations, ipodpatcher doesn't make the same mistake (which is hard to explain, as they share the same code).  So using ipodpatcher may just work anyway.

bluebrother:
Looks like this is the same as described here which is the task linuxstb mentioned: http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/9833

Providing a dump of the first 512 bytes of the disk (before running ipodpatcher on it and afterwards) could be helpful.
