(1/1)

ctfshjohn:
yep,
thats right.
didnt realize it wasnt set to fat 32.
formatted via pc to ntfs on accident.
it looks like its time for a new hd because my pc wont let me format
it to fat 32 now.
anyone have suggestions/ remedies?
thank you i feel like an idiot.

yapper:
Try using a third party utility like Swissknife to format the drive:

bluebrother:
You can also use the formatting feature of the original firmware. Check the Iriver manual on how to access that function.

YOU ARE CORRECT
I didnt think this would work.
It most certainly did.
Then I proceeded to install Rockbox with no issues.
Thanks to all you guys for your help.
