Please describe exactly what you did. Please also post the output of the Help / Troubleshoot / System Trace dialog after your failed installation. You need to save that output before closing Rockbox Utility.

That's the short name for Rockbox Utility.

Do NOT use wine for running ANY of the installation tools. It will break, and is a terribly bad idea. We do provide our installer tools on all major operating systems, you really don't need to do this.

Please post the output of the Help / Troubleshoot / System Info and System Trace dialog after the error occured. Are you running Rockbox Utility as root? Bootloader installation for Ipods requires this.
