Yes, but it would be advisable to leave it in or change the button as that is really for your safety should you near-brick it.
By the way, I can make a custom build for you with these tweaks enabled

Until now, I have successfully compiled and installed Rockbox including the bootloader, but somehow I'm commenting the wrong if-statement. It runs, but still resets if the hold-switch is set...
Although, it is true that you can ALWAYS go into disk mode and reflash.
Hi all,just a short post to tell you: it worked. Rockbox now boots flawlessly with the hold-switch on and I'm still able to boot into the original OS by holding "menu" if I really need to (that is sometimes necessary when the battery is really drained. In that case, Rockbox, which cannot charge while switched off, somehow cannot sustain itself by external power alone and keeps rebooting over and over. Booting into the original OS and charging the battery for a few minutes there does the trick...).Thanks to all for the help!
