H10 not starting up.

[TheDoomer]

Hey. I haven't updated the rockbox firmware on my 20gb H10 since I guess late November, or early December. So now with the progress in video, I'm getting more interested. So I just downloaded the CVS, and now it just won't load. I read a similar thread, but it had to do with installing the new dualboot, mine has nothing to do with that. I just got the CVS build, and it immediately starting doing that. I also haven't really been following rockbox for the past couple months, so if there's something that I have to do, can someone please explain it to me? Thanks.

And if it helps, it gets stuck loading with this on the screen:

Update the bootloader. There were some changes to the bootloader on PP targets, and IIRC they created an incompability which in turn requires to use an updated bootloader.

And where could I find this?

by reading our official documentation?

Links to bootloaders PLUS instructions on preparing the original firmware for dualboot (it need be decrypted) are at http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome?topic=H10InstallationBeta

WTF!? I did EVERYTHING EXACTLY as the damn tutorial said, and now the thing won't freakin turn on!

When you say that it "won't freaking turn on", what exactly do you mean?  Does it not power up at all (something that shouldn't be caused by installing Rockbox on the player)?  Or does it power up, then show the splash screen stating that it can't find the system files?
