Installation / Removal > Rockbox Utility

ipod classic v6

<< < (2/3) > >>

Llorean:
The Rockbox Home page says what versions Rockbox supports over all, not just by the installer. It does in fact say that Rockbox can be used on the Classic, but that it's in the "Unusable Builds" category still. So the "inference being that it cannot" being true if a player wasn't listed would be fine if you'd read carefully enough to notice that the player *was* listed.

The reason they do not have a hair-splitting event in the Olympics is that they know you would get the Gold medal so there is no point in competing LOL.

Llorean:
Ah yes, it's splitting hairs to say "hey, guess what, the homepage doesn't say what you thought it did (telling you which things the installer works on) and does say what you thought it didn't (that Rockbox has a port for the classic) and that basically you were just either imagining things or not reading it at all."

If you're going to say things like "Nowhere does it say that the RB can be installed on v6, the inference being that it cannot." it's not at all "splitting hairs" to say "actually, it does say that Rockbox can be installed on the v6."

DrTeeth:
Seriously, have you seen how much different areas on the site seem to contradict each other? It can be quite subtle, but it is there. There are even some discrepancies as to what the same item is called on different pages. Add to that that some lists are sorted A-Z and some not does not make for ease of info retrieval.

Okay so some firmware will install, that does not mean that it will not brick the recipient. I would wager to most people 'install' is equivalent to 'work properly'. I am sure we have all come across some software that installs and then FUBARs the PC...but at least it installed, right  ;D?

Chillax, we are on the same side.

With kind regards

Not really, since I usually fix them when I see them.  Would you mind linking them here so that they get fixed (or if they're the wiki just fixing them yourself)?
