Double boot on X5 ?

<< < (4/26) > >>

RaeNye:
The cowon firmware is only changed at the very beginning, where it jumps to the added RB code.
H3Mod should work just fine.

ya1950:
Indeed :) Tried it just now and it works fine! Thanks so much for this  ;D

portach king:
Well Done! Can't wait to try this out tonight.

Gapless playback.

Late2DM:
Is the manner in which dual-boot is currently implmented an indication of the direction the final implementation will take? Specifically, is it intended that ultimately one will be able to choose which OF version to boot with Rockbox without having to be able to compile the firmware?

I understand the feature in currently available as a patch and that Rockbox is still very much in beta on the X5. However, this thread (http://www.iaudiophile.net/forums/showthread.php?t=8904) indicates the only way to currently select which OF version to boot is by compiling the source. Does anyone have any ideas on how a final implementation might work in this regard?

TIA

RaeNye:
Once you've compiled the rockbox bootloader (bootloader.bin),
you use a standalone tool (called mkboot-x5 in the next version) that combines the OF of your choice and bootloader.bin to the final firmware.

You still have to either compile mkboot-x5 or d/l a binary of it (but it compiles for windows too, it's standalone)
