Sup good peeps! I wanna live my childhood dream of playing little games on my ipod nano 2nd gen, but the damned thing refuses to actually boot into rockbox...
I believe I am following all instructions correctly, even tried a manual install. every-time I fail I reset the device with iTunes to wipe the device.
Problem is that when I try to boot in it gives me a variety of error screens I don't understand, I will put some exaples below VV

bt end
No partition found (this one appears on a black screen, while rare, it's the only one I have gotten more than once...)
Insert USB cable and fix it.
My sixth attempt froze on the Rockbox logo boot screen thing.

another freeze on the Rockbox logo boot screen thing.

Anyway I think I have put my ipod through enough headaches for data. does any of this make sense to someone with code knowledge? I would really like to get doom working on an ipod nano. one solution I havn't tried yet is possibly installing 3.14 instead of 3.15. though taking that route will result in lots of headaches finding campatible files and all that, assuming it works at all.
Thanks for reading this. My pc is windows running the latest version of the installer, my ipod is a ipod nano 2nd gen 4 gb silver model. pre owned but completely stock software wise before I started messing with it.
