Changed theme file content and Rockbox freezes

(1/1)

j255:
I just installed followed closely the instructions to install rockbox on my iPod classic.
Everything worked out well! I installed some fonts and afterwards the Pen&Paper theme...
When selecting the "Pen&Paper_plus_4.1" theme it loads everything of the interface the right way - except the background! It stays the same standard backdrop "cabbievs2"…
 
I thought that's maybe because of the ampersand in the file name. I deleted the ampersand in the backdrops-folder filename to "PenPaper_plus_hd" (instead of "Pen&Paper_plus_hd". I also opened the wps file "Pen&Paper_plus.wps" itself and changed the link accordingly.
 
When I disconnected the iPod safely it only showed the standard RockBox Wallpaper (cabbiev2) without any interface.... Freeze! I cannot even shut down the iPod by holdpressing Play.... The big mistake, I suppose, was to change the wps file while it was active....
 
I realize right now that I only changed it in the .wps file but I forgot to do the same in the .sbs file.....
 
 
Please!
Any help?

audio-i:
Try restarting your iPod in disk mode (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1363), then install the theme again, it should work fine.
