I tried it again and it worked. lol thank you for everyones help =)

NeilShapiro:
OK, things went wrong. I enabled seeing the invisible files OK and I unzipped the ".rockbox" file to the 80G video iPod and also the fonts folder. I ran the patcher program and it apparently worked ok. So I followed the manual and used Disk Utility to unmount (not eject) the iPod. Then the iPod rebooted but never got to the splash screen. Instead it said no disk partition and to reboot and go into disk mode. I got into disk mode but what to do from there? The only way out I could see was to restore the iPod which seems to be working. But I really want Rockbox is this enough information to help me fix this and get it running?

AlexP:
Try this:

NeilShapiro:
Nope that utility does not work for me. I just tried it on my newly-restored iPod which was mounted on the desktop. Running it from the disk image or running it from my application folder and choosing complete installation all i get is an error message that "Mount Point Is Wrong." Huh?

AlexP:
And you selected the player model and mount point from the dialogue box?

I know this seems obvious, but we need to check.

Edit:  I've just reread your first post, and it seems that to have the reboot to disk mode message you must have got to the rockbox bootloader.  Could you post the exact, complete message?  Also, how is your disk formatted?  It needs to be FAT32.
