iPod Video 5.5g ata error -11 with SSD

[concertomi]

I have just replaced my HDD of my ipod video 5.5g with a ssd but after restoring and attempting to install rockbox, i get the ata error: -11. Can i know what error is this and the solution of this error? Thanks in advance!

I too am looking for a solution to this issue on my ipod video.

Same error here you have.

weird thing is that the original apple ipod firmware works perfectly?

It would be really awesome if one of the devs could figure it out as is super rapid with the ssd and zif adapter.

A user from the forums has just posted me an ipod with a SSD mod which has the same error. Once I receive it and have a little time, I will work out what the problem is and fix our code. Be patient

Torne, any update on this? Thanks

There's too many threads about this, sorry this didn't get updated here

I've got it and have had a quick look, but I've mostly been on vacation and haven't had a lot of time. The converter doesn't appear to be ready in quite the way we expect after a reset, and our initialisation procedure and its timeouts are gonna need tweaking to deal with this. At the moment it's fairly tricky to tell what's going on though, because there isn't enough debugging info available on a real device about what's going on with the ATA stack. I'm probably going to add an ata debug mode which dumps a lot more information about the state of the device on a failure, which will be useful on all Rockbox devices in future

Thanks for the update and your effort on resolving this issue (especially during your vacation).

Good luck on the debugging and we are looking forward to hearing the good news.

Hi there,

Many thanks for your work, i am deeply looking forward to being able to play FLAC again and not having to use itunes!

I will donate asap.


Many Thanks,

Kai.

Not that this actually has any impact on either of those things...but, hey

Every little helps :-)

I'm very happy this is being looked at and appreciate all the devs hard work that goes into rock box, and makes my device far more usable!

It appears CF cards are more Rockbox-able. Why is that? I thought both CF cards and mSATA are all SSD's.

I have the same problem with a new zheino 256gb zif ssd drive in my ipod 5.5 . Is there any resolution to this yet?  I have this problem with 3.13 and latest dev build. please help if you can

I'd probably just try exchanging it for a different drive.

the original apple ipod firmware works perfectly, so the drive is not defective

by the way this zif ssd drive is the correct 3.3 volts (not 5 volts) and only drains 100mah , so you get much more run time
