Welcome to the Rockbox Technical Forums!
As you have only changed device specific code, does that mean that the current bootloader is already capable of booting rockbox off the SDcard?
Does this only work if the internal storage is not accessible (I had removed the .rockbox directory from the internal storage and installed the new build on SD, but it did not boot).
Overall I think this will be a very useful feature as I have one clip+ where I think the internal flash is dying ...
Note that I have not tested these, so beware.

What is the procedure for loading alternative bootloader when one's clip has already defective (read-only) internal flash?Holding down select during boot won't mount the damaged volume:
Fair enough, but it's not possible to boot into OF with corrupted internal flash (it freezes on Sansa logo). So what then?
