Dev Build b30f05badc: "No partition found. Insert USB cable and fix it"
iPodVT:
I just now updated an 80GB iPod 6th Gen Classic "Original" to the current dev build b30f05badc. After the update completed I ejected the iPod and tried to reboot from the OF into the new dev build but I got the error "No partition found. Insert USB cable and fix it". There was no problem when I rebooted back into the OF, but I couldn't get the dev build to boot. I ran AOMEI and it claimed to have found and fixed a few problems, but I still couldn't boot into the new dev build. I even tried reinstalling b30f05badc again but still no dice. So I restored my backup of the version of Rockbox that I had been previously running - 85652e6bd1-240912 - and was able to boot successfully into that.
This iPod is not one of the ones that I have been experimenting with to exceed the LBA28 limitation - it has its original 80GB HDD and is conventionally configured with OF v1.1.2 PC.

Is that "no partition found" shown _after_ the splash screen with the rockbox logo with the b30f0 build underneath it?
If you go back to the 10-17 daily build, does it work?
If that works, does 10-18 work?

Well, crap. I need more info about the drive in there to try and narrow this down.
What's the model number (settings-about in the apple firmware)?
EDIT: Additional questions: If you plug the drive into USB at the "partition not found screen" is the drive accessible? What is the sector size reported? (Under Linux it's easy, 'dmesg' will show you the logical and physical block sizes reported, and fdisk -l /dev/whatever will show "sectors of n * m = whatever" too. I don't know how to get this info from other OSes). Once you have that, boot into the stock firmware, plug in USB, and see if those values are different.

iPod: MB029LL/A
Drive: Toshiba MK8022GAA
I noticed something that possibly indicates a different source of the problem: When I connect to my Windows 10 laptop while running Rockbox or in Bootloader USB Mode the computer says the disk needs to be reformatted, and can't do anything with it as is. When running the Apple OF, Windows has no problems. When connected to my Mac everything's fine in all Apple and Rockbox modes. Do you want me to restore/reformat the iPod and then reinstall the current RB dev build?
