I have no idea why the system wouldn't see the device in this instance. 12:47 < Sonneillon> could i miss some kind of driver for this? 12:49 < [Saint]> Is iTunes present on the machine? 12:50 < Sonneillon> yes 12:50 < Sonneillon> And if I run it, it asks me to restore the iPod 12:50 < [Saint]> And, you've followed *this* step: http://www.freemyipod.org/wiki/EmCORE_Installation/iPodClassic/DFUiTunes 12:50 < Sonneillon> so that would work, but thats not what i want^^ 12:50 < Sonneillon> yep 12:51 < Sonneillon> closing itunes, killing the mobiledevicehelper, getting it into dfu mode 12:51 < Sonneillon> screen stays black 12:52 < TheSeven> [14:46:00] but it doesn't show up in the explorer << dfu devices don't show up in explorer 12:52 < TheSeven> they will only show up in the device manager 12:53 < [Saint]> you missed a step there. Are you running bootstrap_ipodclassic_itunes.exe? 12:53 < Sonneillon> erm 12:53 < Sonneillon> i downloaded it 12:53 < Sonneillon> it telled to run it after this dfu stuff installed 12:54 < [Saint]> right, well..having it sitting there doing nothing won't help ;) 12:54 < Sonneillon> i tried to run it anyway but it told me could not open DFU device 12:54 < Sonneillon> so does it now 12:55 < TheSeven> that's probably because itunes has already interfered with it 12:55 < Sonneillon> hrm 12:55 < TheSeven> once itunes or that mobile device helper thing got in touch with the ipod, you'll have to leave and re-enter dfu 12:55 < Sonneillon> right 12:55 < Sonneillon> how nasty 12:55 < Sonneillon> so now again, restoring ipod, getting it into dfu again and hoping that itunes will stay calm 12:56 < TheSeven> no, just get rid of itunes and mobiledevicehelper, and press and hold menu+select again 12:56 < [Saint]> you can just tell iTunes to fuck off (uninstall it) and use a custom driver to do this also... 12:56 < [Saint]> (you'll need .NET Framework 3.5 installed as well though) 12:56 < TheSeven> [Saint]: that doesn't neccessarily make things easier though 12:56 < TheSeven> the custom driver has its quirks as well 12:57 < TheSeven> but usually you should be able to just reset it again to boot it up normally, and then enter dfu again 12:57 < Sonneillon> wait, one thing after the other 12:58 < Sonneillon> what, btw about AppleMoileDeviceService.exe - shouldn't i just close that one too? 12:59 < TheSeven> yeah, kill itunes and all this mobile device stuff 12:59 < TheSeven> then reboot the ipod again, and re-enter dfu 12:59 < TheSeven> after that, launch the bootstrapper 13:00 < Sonneillon> soooo 13:00 < Sonneillon> that worked 13:00 < Sonneillon> itunes tried to started anyway, but i was faster :-) 13:06 < Sonneillon> erm, maybe a stupid question 13:07 < Sonneillon> but later on the instructions tell me to unzip the "rockbox-ipodclassic.zip" to the root directory of my ipod 13:07 < Sonneillon> but the explorer tells me its all empty 13:07 < Sonneillon> so, create a /root ? just unzip it anyway? 13:09 < Sonneillon> right... root 13:10 < [Saint]> "the root of the device" is the toplevel of the filesystem. 13:10 < Sonneillon> which just means root in english 13:10 < Sonneillon> yeah 13:10 < [Saint]> not a directory called root. 13:10 < Sonneillon> thats what just came to me 13:10 < Sonneillon> sry, english is not my native language 13:10 < Sonneillon> so i just realized what "root" means 13:10 < Sonneillon> ^^ 13:12 < Sonneillon> yay 13:12 < Sonneillon> it works 13:12 < Sonneillon> thank you so much, for helping and for doing all the coding work and stuff 13:13 < Sonneillon> just one more week with this lousy itunes thing and i would have started to kill people 13:17 -!- Sonneillon [59f6dfd0@gateway/web/freenode/ip.89.246.223.208] has quit [Ping timeout: 252 seconds] 13:36 -!- [Saint] [~st.lasciv@124-197-3-117.callplus.net.nz] has quit [Quit: Imagination is for turbo-nerds who can't handle how kick-butt reality is.
