Few questions

Not sure where this post should be :P But I gave my best shot. As I understand there are no requests so I was just asking how I would go about making my own build for my Philips GoGear Cam (8GB) mp3 player, I've used Rockbox before on my Sansa E260, and I fell in love with the program, and even told a bunch of friends about it. After searching for a while, I didn't find anything for the mp3 player, I noticed there were a few buggy builds for some Philips brand players, but as I understand not the one I have.
     Thx in advance :)
P.S. I know a bit about computers but not sure it will help me understand how this stuff works, cause I see a lot of confusing terms on these forums and stuff that goes a little over my head. Just sayin, hehe

LambdaCalculus:
Rockbox only runs on the players listed on the front page.

Are there issues with the technology inside that would prevent any build from being made for it?

torne:
The "issue" is that the hardware inside every MP3 player is different. "Making a build" for a new player requires that someone writes drivers for all the hardware, from scratch if the components are not very similar to an already supported player. It's not just a matter of compiling it with different options.
