Trouble installing on my new 30GB iPod

<< < (2/2)

Llorean:
I honestly don't know if the program even compiles yet on OSX, so I really can't help you much there. In theory you should be able to just get the /ipodpatcher/ folder in the /tools/ folder of the Rockbox source archive (or downloaded from CVS) and run "make" in it, but that's all stuff done in the terminal, and I'm not sure whether OSX comes with the compilers and make or if those have to be installed.

I'm sorry I can't offer much in this case, as I'm really not sound on a Mac.

Leasara:
No worries, I'll see what I can figure out from my end then.

Llorean:
Or, apparently I'm slightly stupid, the person who wrote the program has a Mac, and is confirming that everything is still working well (it was apparently last time he checked, but there have been some changes since).

In which case, if we're lucky, we'll see some pre-compiled versions, and new, much simpler installation instructions in the next few days (if not sooner) :)

There are a few more plans for making the tool even easier to use, and I imagine precompiled versions may wait for those changes (not sure how long they'll take) but the current tool will probably suit your need if you can compile it.

Leasara:
In that case, since I suppose I'm more likely to make a lucky mistake rather than contribute to real progress, I'll just wait for an official release ;)

If you're in need of a technical writer, however, I would be more than happy to offer my limited expertise in the field.
