Double boot on X5 ?
RaeNye:
The tough part is to boot the OF, so if this works I'm pretty sure something's wrong with your compilation (e.g., with boot.lds).
- Is the regular v2 RB bootloader able to boot rockbox?
- Does the first dual-boot patch work? (the REC one)
- Does a precompiled dual-boot version work?
If you're still thinking that something in my patch in wrong, please get RB running, dump the ROM (via debug menu) and look at the first 64KB. Especially, please tell me whether on address 0xeda4 you have the string: "Welcome to new world of X5. Version = 5.00".

Thanks for your help RaeNye and Linus, it actually looks like a toolchain problem on my end (bad Gentoo crossdev compiler, don't ask). Using your precompiled bootloader and a daily build rather than my own build everything works normally.
Great patch RaeNye, I hope it gets merged at some point.

Give tools/rockboxdev.sh a try instead!
Mad Big Sausage:
The feature freeze is now gone, are still efforts to get this in CVS??
Even though I can compile it myself already my girlfriend won't trust her player's health to my skills so she's adament about waiting for the CVS version.
Her loss really... :D
RaeNye:
1. A new version (respecting remote hold switch) is being worked on.
2. There're some didactic problems with the dual bootloader relying on preloader code, so it probably won't be comitted anytime soon.
3. I will provide a binary version once the new version (hopefully final version feature-wise) is out.
