What exactly does it say?

And I mean all of it, there's a good bit of useful information in there.

rockbox boot loader

IPOD version: 0xFFFFFFFF
TOSHIBA MK300GAL
No partition found

You followed the wrong install instructions (or used an installer not designed for the 5.5g).

Put your ipod into disk mode (hold MENU+SELECT to reset your ipod, then immediately press and hold SELECT+PLAY), restore it using itunes, and follow the instructions here:

Yes.  See the section of the Rockbox Manual regarding turning the player on.
