Which is not going to work for the reasons Torne listed :)

Obstinate:
Oh I understand now. So, what should I do now to make it work? Compile a new bootloader?

torne:
You may need to compile a new bootloader, yes. What you should do first, though, is tell us what happens when you try and use the drive, which you still haven't mentioned. In the thread you linked, people report the classic drive working just fine. The classic drive would indeed not have worked with Rockbox until recently; perhaps that's why it's believed not to be compatible?

Obstinate:
When I plug in the drive, I get an ATA -32 error I believe, an HDD error in the original iAudio firmware, and when I plug it into the computer, the drive fails to show up. I can hear the disk spin up perfectly fine, yet when Windows tries to initialize it, but it always fails to find the appropriate drivers.

I wish I had more detailed info, just that the drive doesn't register in Windows. I cannot format it or anything.

torne:
Ah, hm; I forgot that it would need to work in the OF in order to install rockbox ;)

I can't find any information on what, allegedly, is different about this drive that makes it incompatible with anything; just lots of claims by people that it *is*. If it does have a similar defect to the ipodvideo drive, then you'll need more than a different build of Rockbox to use it, because you still won't be able to install it if the OF doesn't recognise it...
