linuxstb:
If your bootloader has a blue screen, you're not using the latest version of the Rockbox bootloader.  See here:

http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/IpodInstallationBeta

This is required to use the new "5.5g" video ipod (and recommended for all ipods).

thoai:
hi everybody,

as the screen was staying like there permanently, I am gone to bed. ;D
but I have been anxious all the night too :-\
and this morning, my ipod was lighted off.

So I have tried to push select + play 6 secondes to go on hard disk (this manipulation haven't worked yesterday when i had the white screen).
It have worked!!! so I go on command with my computer , and i have applied ipodpatcher -w N bootpartition.bin.
And now it is desinstalled , ouf!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

I don't know if one day i will try again rockbox, i was seeing me going to Darty for change my Ipod (only one week i have it).

For information, here was my method, perhaps you will see something wrong:

1) First method: I  have tried rockbox installer :

http://www.ipodwizard.net/showthread.php?t=15153

but it was noting "no disk found"

so i tried the 2nd method

2)second method:

- i have downloaded rockbox.zip http://www.rockbox.org/cvs.shtml
-i extract it in ipod
-in c:\rockbox I have putted : ipod_fw.exe http://download.rockbox.org/bootloader/ipod/ipod_fw.exe
ipodpatcher.exe http://download.rockbox.org/bootloader/ipod/ipodpatcher.exe
bootloader-video.bin http://download.rockbox.org/bootloader/ipod/bootloader-video.bin

In c:\rockbox :ipodpatcher 0
ipodpatcher 1
ipodpatcher 2
ipodpatcher 3
(etc)

the 1 was OK.

then :ipodpatcher -r 1 bootpartition.bin
ipod_fw -o apple_os.bin -e 0 bootpartition.bin

ipod_fw -o apple_sw_5g_rcsc.bin -e 1 bootpartition.bin
ipod_fw -g video -o rockboot.bin -i apple_os.bin bootloader-video.bin

ipodpatcher -w 1 rockboot.bin

then i putt off USB

then there was white screen with rockbox bootloader

DO you see something wrong?

Llorean:
You followed the old installation method, using the old bootloader as Linuxstb said.

EVERYTHING was wrong. See the new method in the manual.

scorche:
Are you sure you have a 30 gig version?  From "Partition 1 : 0*0B 7130Mb" it looks like an 80 gig version, as Llorean was referring to in his first reply to you.

thoai:
thank you guys!!!!
this method is good, it works perfectly, lets discover rockbox!!!

yes I'm sure it's a 30Gb, it's noted on the back of my IPOd
