Note that this version of the bootloader (which if it works will be the next release) doesn't display any messages on the screen unless an error has occurred. Â
Just unzip it, and double-click on the extracted ipodpatcher.exe. Â You'll be prompted if you want to install the bootloader.
Then boot with the hold switch turned on and let me know if the Apple firmware starts. Â If so, also test with the latest Rockbox Current Build and let me know if audio playback is working.
Thanks.
EDIT: Here's a Mac OS X version - http://www.davechapman.f2s.com/rockbox/ipodpatcher-0.9-dmg
and Linux - http://www.davechapman.f2s.com/rockbox/ipodpatcher-0.9-linux32.zip

I have a 4G grayscale and this worked like a charm with the latest build. Rockbox and Original firmware load and music works just fine on rockbox. Finally crossfading tracks :D Great work dude!

Any ideas?

Now I installed the latest rockbox + ipodpatcher again... it works now. ???
Okay, the first time I made a mistake: I installed the ipodpatcher first and after that I copied rockbox. Could this be the problem?
linuxstb:
There seem to be general problems with entering USB mode at the moment - I always experience freezes if I try to enter USB mode when the disk is spinning.
This is unrelated to the bootloader/ipodpatcher issues of the past.
