Rockbox Ports are now being developed for various digital audio players!
I'm posting this for reference if others have the same problem.Testdasi from anythingbutipod.com found a solution to this, which is:Format your Sansa (which has the label "Sansa e250") and in the format options select File System: FAT32. It seems that after i reinstalled the original firmware, it reverted the filesystem to FAT, which isn't recognized by sansapatcher.
I had the same problem as those above where the Sansa wasn't being detected by the ./sansapatcher command, and it also happened to be in standard FAT. I've switched the filing system to FAT32 now and it hasn't resolved anything. When inputed as "sudo ./sansapatcher", this is what appeared:
If you type "fdisk -l" (the letter "ell") you should see the partition tables of all attached disks displayed. Can you copy and paste the partition table of your Sansa into a messsage here so I can see what Sansapatcher should be looking for?
Under the Ubuntu properties GUI, the Sansa is claiming that it's using the vfat FAT32 filing system, yet the output above from fdisk indicates that it's still in FAT16.
Results after the following commands:/dev/sda1 1 1011 1942270+ 6 FAT16

The problem is that your system is set to auto-mount. You must unmount /dev/sda1 first and then run sansapatcher. If you still have problems, post the output of the command:lsusbCharles
