[Clip+, Clip Zip, ClipV2, FuzeV2] Improve battery life, part 2

It does not boot from the SD, that would have required a different bootloader before it failed.
I applied Mihail's "SD only" patch/hack, copied the .rockbox folder to the SD, copied it's rockbox.sansa to the root of the SD.
So after booting I go to /<sdcard>/rockbox.sansa and select it. Rolo loads it and the internal drive is invisible, all data is read and written to the SD.

I applied the modded firmware before this failure from this thread: http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php/topic,51304.0.html
In case of issues with internal flash it should have booted straight to .rockbox located on SD card.
johnb:
I believe you got this wrong. You said that your player is read-only. In this case the internal drive is still accessible, i.e. it won't boot from SD.
You will have to follow the instructions I gave in my previous post.
A bootloader that can directly boot from SD, if the SD card is prepared for this is here:
http://www.mediafire.com/file/c7loz2mi7f7goar/clppa_new.bin.zip by Bilgus.
For this to work you also need a modified RB version on the SD. But as said, once your internal flash is read-only, it's too late for that.
asymsucon:
Is that firmware available for Zip as well?
I cannot find the original thread.

It contains the special build that Bilgus provided (in the forum or IRC), but I don't recall the original location, so I uploaded it. I have also included the file that triggers the bootloader to start from SD: rockbox_main.clip+
Just unpack into the root of the SD. (of course after having installed the above bootloader, otherwise it has no effect).
Please refer to Bilgus' work here:
