iPodPatcher doesn't display a number
« on: December 23, 2006, 01:56:08 PM »
I cannot find the "number" that it's supposed to display, so I can't continue installing.  I have a 60gb Video iPod, and on Windows, my computer detects the iPod but says:

C:\rockbox>ipodpatcher --scan
ipodpatcher v0.5 - Dave Chapman 2006

[INFO] Ipod found - Video - disk device 1

C:\rockbox>


There is no number displayed, or am I doing something wrong?  Or is "disk device 1" all I need?

Yes, your device number is "1".  So the next command you need to type is:

Code: [Select]
ipodpatcher 1 -r bootpartition.bin

(to create a backup of the current state of your ipod's firmware partition)

followed by

Code: [Select]
ipodpatcher 1 -a bootloader-ipodvideo.ipod
to install the bootloader.

Just as a note, the bit that was the number was the line that says "[INFO] Ipod found - Video  - disk device 1"
