This text is on display after restarting Ipod:
Rockbox boot loader
Version: 20r12194-070204
IPOD version: 0xFFFFFFFF
Toshiba MK8010GAH

And after that its all. Ipod looks like "death". Cant do anything. I can just restart it when its connected to pc (via USB)
And afrer restarting still same text appears :(
When i connect Ipod to pc any text like new hardware does not show. Just when i use "disk mode" i can connect Ipod like new device.

C:\rockbox - I have got these files:
ipodpatcher
bootloader-ipodvideo.ipod (61kB)
bootpartion 128 394 (kB)


Please help me how to run Rockbox on my Ipod.
Thanks

The 80gb iPod is not supported. It says this on the front page of the site, and in the manual, and on the install guide page.

 Which ipods does Rockbox work on?

Rockbox works on all recent ipods apart from the Shuffle (both old and new), the new "2nd Generation" ipod Nano (the all-aluminium version) and the 80GB ipod Video.

Hey,
but i have found out that you wrote that you DO support Ipod 80GB

Do tell where - because we most certainly don't.

You missed the apart in that sentence. Maybe we should refrase that sentence to:

Rockbox works on all recent ipods.
Note! Rockbox does NOT work on the Shuffle (both old and new), the new "2nd Generation" ipod Nano (the all-aluminium version) or the 80GB ipod Video.
