Rockbox Loader "RoLo": Livetime of the loaded image/kernel

[mcc01]

Hi,

RoLo is a really noce way to test rockbox builds.
Unfortunately I did not found that many docs
about the technical background.

One thing:
If I load another rockbox.sansa into the player...
how long will it run?
If switch off the player...does the image remains in
RAM because the SoC is not really off but more
likely "idle" or "suspended"?
Do I need a hard reset then?

Best regards,
mcc

If you switch off the player, it's off, so on the next start the bootloader will load the regular rockbox binary, regardless of what was running before

Hi gevaerts,

thanks for your post!
It seems to be modern technology,
when one is unsure, what "off" really do..

Best regards,
