[19:19:10] oh, and it's an ipod classic 6g 80gb. [20:38:21] egrain: you can install rockbox using rockbox utility, but not a bootloader [20:38:29] in order to boot it, you need emcore [20:38:40] as i said. installation went fine. [20:38:51] ah, sorry [20:38:52] "install rockbox utility on player" is grayed out. [20:39:06] did you select the right drive at the Configuration screen? [20:39:25] you need to click Show disabled targets, because 6g is not supported officially [20:39:31] i had to. otherwise he won't let me do anything. [20:39:40] if i hadn't done that, i couldn't have installed it. [20:39:51] ok then, can you post a screenshot? there must be something wrong [20:40:39] of what exactly? the grayed out "install rockbox utility on player"? [20:41:09] uhm, wait a minute. the whole install screen is greyed out for me, too [20:41:13] as i said. everything else works. it even shows the content of my ipod in the info register. [20:41:32] well, maybe it doesn't work when you have the developers thingy installed, and not the stable one. [20:42:13] i just asked, because it said i should be able to in the install manual on the freemyipod lalal ipod classic 6g page. [20:42:23] anyway, i'll survive without it, i'm sure. [20:42:29] i was just asking, because everything else went perfectly fine. [20:43:19] so you installed rockbox manually (extracting the zip into the ipod's root dir)? [20:43:43] no. i used the rbutil, just like the manual said i should. [20:44:17] ipod6g is not listed in http://download.rockbox.org/build-info - that's why everything is greyed out [20:44:18] also it said that rockbox util wouldn't be able to read manually installed things, so updating would have required me doing it manually as well. [20:44:47] then you should add that in the install manual. [20:45:01] no matter how you installed rockbox, rbutil should work and allow you to update the current installed version [20:45:32] oh, i thought i read that somewhere, that manually installed stuff can't be recognized. [20:45:51] it can't show you the version [20:45:55] oh, i see. [20:45:58] but it should be able to overwrite it [20:46:04] good good. [20:46:13] thank you. [20:46:32] the real problem at the moment is, that rockbox's build system mysteriosly removed ipod6g from rbutil's config url [20:46:49] it doesn't know where to get builds for this device, and greys out the install screen [20:47:01] oh, and just in case you are more involved in the whole rockbox plugins thing. i found someone asking for spritz (the speed reading thing) for rockbox on reddit. i would use that, too. [20:47:02] i have asked the developers if this is intentional [20:47:30] and? [20:47:33] what did they say? [20:47:52] i'm just a rockbox user (and a freemyipod developer), so i'm not really into the plugin development business [20:48:02] but feel free to ask them at #rockbox [20:48:13] no one has answered so far [20:48:22] you can join the channel if you want [20:48:32] oh, i will when i get back. [20:49:45] anyway. thank you so much for making it possible to install linux on my classic 6g. [20:49:56] i really appreciate it. [20:50:11] no problem, and it's not linux :) [20:50:18] yes yes yes. [20:50:22] it's not apple either, and that counts. [20:50:32] yeah, in this sense [20:50:53] though i read that rockbox based some things on ipodlinux, so... [20:51:15] not really, it has been written from the scratch [20:51:24] there was ipodlinux for older ipods [20:51:29] and it was a real linux port [20:52:05] in theory, the current kernel should be able to run on the 6g/7g series [20:52:14] if someone has the time to port the drivers [20:52:29] i wish i was able to do things! [20:52:43] i mean i know my way around the linux well enough by now, but that's where it all ends, too. [20:52:53] anyway, i'm running late. [20:53:01] thanks again. [20:53:02] enjoy.
