iPod 3g Rockbox PDF/online manual installation guide error/omission
docrings:
The 3g manual (PDF/HTML/Online versions) are missing VITAL INFORMATION for installation.
The installation instruction section is currently missing code information on page 13 of the installation section:
"5. Merge the Rockbox boot loader you downloaded previously with the Apple firware." The instructions are missing the code to do this step.
It should include the following DOS prompt code:
-----code-----
ipod_fw -g 3g -o rockboot.bin -i apple_os.bin bootloader-3g.bin
----------------
I checked the other iPod version manuals, and they all have the correct code included...
Cheers!

So, why the heck are you posting it here instead of filing a bug report? Report it in the proper place, please.

Nice.
Please report issues like that in the proper place, that is the tracker. If you manage to submit a patch, even better. But please don't report on this issue anymore, it's fixed (since 2 minutes). If there are other missing lines please use the tracker. Stuff like this gets lost in the forums.

So people can find it with a forum search... that's where I started and couldn't find it. So posted here. Glad to see it got fixed.
Didn't know an instruction manual omission was a "bug" in the Rockbox code, but so be it...even an old dog can be taught new tricks!
