rockbox.mi4 not found

[ZStamm]

Bought a  new Sansa e260v2, and tried installing rockbox using the automated rockbox installer under windows 7 (64-bit).  It did not seem to do anything.  Then I tried the manual install using the instructions posted.  The only change I made was that I used the American firmware instead of the European firmware.  After I did that, I get an error when I boot the player.
cannot load rockbox.mi4:
file not found

The player then boots with the sansa firmware.

Thank you for any help you can give me.

You have an e200v1, not an e200v2.   Install the correct build and it should work.

well, it says model: e260v2 right on the back of the device, so I do not think that that is the problem, and when I try using the automated installer telling it that it is a v1, it says that it is the wrong device.


Wait, nevermind.  I just found out that some of the e200 series that say they are v2 on the case are actually v1.  This would be a good thing to put on the sansa FAQ, because this really confused me.

Its a wiki you can edit it.  However the manual does tell you how to figure out the version at the start of the install directions.
