Can't get Rockbox to work on a Sansa Fuze 4GB
« on: September 06, 2010, 03:35:44 PM »
Hi all,
I have tried to install Rockbox onto my Sansa Fuze but it won't have it!
I have only tried to install it the auto as I don't get the manual way!
It installs the .rockbox folder but it seems like it can't install the bootloader for some reason!
Am I doing something wrong? or is there someting else I'm missing out!
Any help please?
Regards Tom.

You're missing to tell us what "some reason" is exactly.

Hi there,
Rockbox won't work at all!
All I have is the .rockbox folder & that's it!
The device only loads into the original firmware not Rockbox.

Assuming you tried rockbox utility and it wouldn't install the bootloader, you probably have one of those newer revision Fuzev2s that only works with the manual installer.  Either try that or just wait until rockbox utility is updated.
