« on: December 20, 2006, 05:15:50 PM »
Hi,

Followed instructions here: http://download.rockbox.org/manual/rockbox-ipodmini2g/rockbox-buildch2.html#x4-60002

After performing step 2.2.3 I rebooted the Ipod, apple logo came up and its just stuck at the logo - not going anywhere, any idea whats up?  Thanks ...

Try booting into disk mode, uninstalling the bootloader (follow the uninstallation instructions from the manual) and then try the new instructions here: http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IpodInstallationBeta

You get into disk mode by holding down menu button and center button eh?  I do this, it reboots and comes back to apple logo ... just sits there ;(

Menu + Select simply restarts the iPod.
On most iPods, immediately after rebooting holding Select+Play goes into disk mode.
