Can't install rockbox on iPod 4G

<< < (2/2)

radink:
I think the last step is your problem.

What is in the root drive of your ipod?

You need a rockbox folder and a rockbox file in there (i forget the exact names)

bascule:
Whoah! Have you never heard of Alt+PrtScn, it just copies the active window, not your whole desktop ;)

Or you could have re-sized them...

That's a rockbox.ipod file and a .rockbox folder. Can't help with the process, the iPod is an unknown quantity for me.

Llorean:
It is NOT in the same folder, as far as your screenshots show. You're running the commands from C:\Documents and Settings\Howe\ and your file is in C:\.

Also, why on Earth would you assume an actual error message is intended?

Uh, isn't that section of the command line supposed to show which account you're running cmd from? If not, how do I chance that location?

In the interest of eliminating possibilities ;)

We need to find a good noobie tutorial for the command line.

takes you back one directory.
If you were in:
c:\Foo\Bar\Racer
it will take you to
c:\Foo\Bar


--- Code: ---CD \

--- End code ---
takes you back to the root of the current drive
If you were in:
c:\Foo\Bar\Racer
it will take you to
c:\


--- Code: ---CD racer

--- End code ---
will take you to the subdirectory named "racer"
If you were in:
C:\Foo\Bar
it will take you to
C:\Foo\Bar\Racer


--- Code: ---cd \Racer

--- End code ---
will take you to the subdirectory of the root directory named "racer"
If you were in:
C:\Foo\Bar
it will take you to
C:\racer
(Assuming c:\racer exists.)

to change to the C drive.

--- Code: ---D:

to change to the D drive.
etc.

Notice:
My (apparently) sloppy usage of capital letters was intentional.  Windows is case aware, but not case sensitive.
Unlike the Unix, which is case aware AND case sensitive.
 
edit:  Humor me.  If the directory name has a space in it - put the directory name in quotes
This isn't always a rule, but it never (?) hurts.
