BT support would be great: the OF only connects using a default key without the option to change it, and that's not the key my BT speaker expects, so I can't connect to it >:( Massive caveat to anyone planning to purchase a Rocker to use BT on OF!

So I tried this:
0. Boot with old SD card (the one I used to flash rockbox): boots fine
1. Remove SD card, but do not replace it with another one -> after selecting Rockbox from the boot menu, I see "Cannot boot Rockbox"
2. On a new 64 Gb card, sudo mkfs.fat -F 32 /dev/sdd1 , plug that in to the player -> same result at boot as with no SD card
3. On that same 64 Gb card, sudo mkfs.fat -I -F 32 /dev/sdd , plug that in to the player -> same result at boot as with no SD card

I'll try that after dding off the current data in case I mess it up.

The rockbox file needs to be on the sd card that is currently in the player. If you switch sd cards you must put rockbox on the new card.

I used dd to make an image of the original micro SD that I used for flashing the rockbox, which was working for me with restricted space. Then I dd'd that to the new micro SD card. With that card in, it booted. Then I resized the FAT filesystem using:
sudo fatresize -p -s 60900Mi /dev/sdd
Now it shows 49 Gb free -- not sure why still that small (I expected something between 54 and 59 Gb), but it's a lot better than just a few Gb as before!

Thanks -- what do you mean by "The rockbox file"? Does some data need to be in a particular location in the filesystem, or is it perhaps just the presence of the directory named ".rockbox"? Or are you referring to following the flashing process again? Or maybe something else?
