Help, where'd my rockbox go?

(1/3) > >>

hawaiianatheart:
I've had Rockbox on my Sansa (e series) and suddenly it disappeared. How can I find it again?  Thanks!

saratoga:
Depends what you did to get rid of it.  Probably just reboot or reinstall.

Well, that's the thing... I didn't take it off! It was there -  plugged it into computer - it disappeared. I have 6 Sansa E's ( whole family owns one) and never had that happen before. I tried to just reinstall and I keep getting some msg saying "Bootloader installation requires you to provide a firmware file of the original firmware (bin file). You need to download this file yourself for legal reason........"

Well, I have searched the forums, etc and can not find the stinking file. I can not load rockbox on my Fuze for the same reason. I love my sansa but ONLY with rockbox installed!!!!

Any help?

It sounds like you booted the Sandisk firmware.  As I suggested above, try rebooting back into Rockbox.

The instructions tell you where to find that file.  Read and follow them.

I guess I'm clueless on how to do that.  :o Hubby usually handles the rockbox stuff but he's away. Can you please *talk* me through it? Thanks ever so much!
