so about 3 months ago i got a video ipod for a hundred bucks from a kid at school. i plugged it in Via my old fire wire cable for my 3G and it fried my new ipod. well i was kinda pissed so i went to apple. and found out there was a warranty on it the kid didnt know about and it had like a week left. so i renewed it and they gave me a new ipod for free. well the guy told me it was because i used a fire wire with an ipod that ws designed for a usb and told me not to use it with a fire wire cable and then told me to only use a firewire cable with the 3g.

well if im only supposed to use a firewire cable with the 3g then how am i supposed to use the 3g with rockbox???? THe 3G manual says that it doesnt support fire wire???

thanks
joe

It doesn't support the *detection* of Firewire.  This means that you have to manually boot it into disk mode when you insert the cable.
