The reason for this is simple...
You device is not supported.

Attempting to install firmware that is not intended for your device can potentially cause serious harm. I'm not sure how you thought that this would work.
Please review the list of supported devices on the main page, as you will see, nowhere does it indicate that your device is supported either by the automated installer or manual installation.

Yes. The original firmware.
There is no custom firmware available for your device.

If you're using Rockbox Utility you neither download ipodpatcher nor a build yourself. Rockbox Utility does that for you. It would also have told you that Rockbox does not run on your player.
