i mean 1394 doesn't work with apple os,as ipod 1g's scroll wheel does not supported by rb,i don't want to run rb on 1g

saratoga:
If it doesn't work in the AppleOS its probably burned out.

My one experience of a damaged 1394 port on a 2G iPod was caused by a bad wired car charger : http://www.rockbox.org/wiki/UseOldiPodsWithBadFirewirePort
