I uploaded the content of the player containing the build and the system files here: https://www.file-upload.net/download-14970909/Rockbox_Olympus_mRobe.zip.html (use at your own risk).

Hi cereal_killer,
sorry to quote you out of the blue, but perhabs you could reupload your rockbox build somewhere?
After i found a working storage solution for my m:robe, i now figured out that basically all current rockbox builds are broken.
Your help would be very much appreciated :)

I hope everything works. Some time ago, I tried to swap the storage too, but caan't remember if I have ever succeeded or which adapter I used. What do you use?
Bilgus:
If that build works for you hit us up here with details and later on IRC when you have some time to test builds

Thank you very much, yes it indeed works pretty well!
I'm using an 64gb msata ssd on a cheap sata to IDE ZIF adaptor, together with another ZIF to CE adaptor.
Initially i wanted to use compact flash, as this sata solution already caused troubles with rockbox on my ipod video.
But the m:robe wouldn't accept any of my CF cards, except my 256gb card i already planned to use elsewhere.
Also it's limited to 128gb, but this CF card has been the fastest and most stable solution otherwise.
The SSD is really heating up a lot, even though the transfer speed never exceeds 1,3Mb/s

Sure, just let me know how i can help you debugging the issue.
Never used IRC before, but i'll have a look around.
Bilgus:
to start here is a build with LCD_DMA disabled, I'll probably try a few things, try the builds as you get a chance

also if you would can you make note of exactly how it fails and let me know if that changes when you run a build
like does it take longer flash the screen first etc.
