Hello
I've installed rockbox on my ipod, but I forgot to enable disk mode beforehand.
Now I am getting an error
'Can't load rockbox.ipod
Hold MENU+SELECT to reboot then SELECT+PLAY for disk mode.'
can anyone please help me???

when I plug it in my computer, the computer doesn't recognise it.
what should I do??
panic mode now...

The error message is telling you exactly what to do to get into disk mode. Why not go along with that?

Did you remember to extract a Rockbox build to your iPod after installing the bootloader?

Yes I pressed menu + select and it rebooted but after when I pressed select + play nothing happens!!!
Yes but my point is I forgot to enable disk mode before on my computer, so does that mean I can't enter disk mode on my iPod ??

It means you didn't do it right and should try again.
