Hi,
My iPod Mini 2nd gen is stuck on rockbox after installation. manually restarting the iPod does just boot loops it when the hold switch is on. I can manually reinstall apple firmware but then the rockbox bootloader has to be reinstalled. The two are like magnets; one pushes the other away.

Turns out it was the hard drive. I replaced it with an iflash SD to CF card and a 256gb samsung evo microsd card.
