metaphys:
SD is not supported and not recommended during firmware update... could it be the reason ?

Rarog:
During the update SD wasn't inside. I inserted it only after booting original firmware. Before I got the grey screen directly after the firmware update.
Also I tried to boot rockbox with and without the SD card. It doesn't make any difference. Independent of SD card inside I can boot the original firmware as described in the FAQ.

ddscentral:
Been following this thread for a while and decided to post my observations.

Built rockbox and the bootloader fine without much trouble on Debian 6.
Some observations:
- Boots VERY quickly (in 1-2 sec, original FW may take up to a minute)
- Music playback is louder than in original FW (I like that).
- The touchpad is very responsive (unlike in original FW)

Problems:
- The screen fade-in fade-out is funky (IIRC, this is already known)
- The keys (touchpad) sometimes act funky. For example Back key doesn't seem to work in the player screen. Cursor keys don't work at all in text editor screen.
- Some plugins are broken (again, mostly key related problems)
- SD card doesn't work (IIRC, SD card is listed in wiki as non-working, so can't complain here)
- Battery readout looks strange to me. The original FW shows about 50%, while rockbox shows 98%.

The only thing I miss right now is the SD card support (and possibly charging without the original FW).

pamaury:
Hello,
a grey screen probably means you have the second type of LCD which I haven't tested (because I don't have it). Perhaps there is a problem with it, I will have a look. Thanks for the feedback. Note that plugging usb in the OF makes it reboot so if you want to reboot to the OF, hold volume down on usb plug.

Rarog:
Ah, the thought with 2nd display came into my mind. Well, I wanted to  boot the OF to charge,a s it doesn't work with Rockbox yet, but I found out, that plugging the MicroUSB t directly into the wall instead of Computer does the trick.
Can I help you implementing it by using some special debug build or by providing you with some logging output perhaps?
