Select which boot at startup

Sometimes it would be useful to be able to choose whether you want original firmware or Rockbox.

Please don't start multiple threads on the same topic. If it's already been suggested, talk about it where it was already suggested.

All you accomplish by opening a new thread is diluting the discussion and competing with other threads on the same idea.

So would this idea co-exist with either of those? It seems pretty clearly an alternative/replacement for them.

Anyway, so here's my question and request:
who wants to have the OPTION to have the following happen when you open (audiobook) files:

This is actually a forum for discussing how to implement things.  E.g. programming, ideas, implementation, etc.  We don't take requests, and we're not really interested in who wants what, so posting requests isn't very helpful and may even annoy people.  If you want to propose an idea, I suggest laying out how to do it concisely (e.g. without paragraphs of unrelated stuff that one has wade through), reading through previous discussions on related topics, and seeing what, if anything, still hasn't been discussed previously.

That said, it sounds like you something very similar to what is already implemented in that previous thread you linked.  Could you explain how its different then whats already possible?

[Llorean]

Please do not delete posts people have responded to. It makes the whole thread a mess. Now there's two replies (one by me and one by Saratoga) to posts that don't even exist any more.

Which is not supported by us, so if you use it you will need to reinstall the Rockbox bootloader and retest before asking for help.
