[04:11:26] *** Joins: NoDiskNoFun (bcc1a041@gateway/web/freenode/ip.188.193.160.65) [04:13:56] Hello, i try to enter the UMSBoot partion on my IPod Nano 4G. Anyone know how to, because there must be a way to flash rockbox on it, cause the picture on the mainpage shows a N4G with RockBox already booted. [04:22:21] <[Saint]> NoDiskNoFun: the Nano4G is NOT supported. [04:22:26] <[Saint]> (for end users) [04:23:02] <[Saint]> An end user can do exactly nothing with it. Move along. There's no joy for your player here, I'm afraid. [04:24:08] <[Saint]> (and no, the main page shows nothing of the sort) [04:24:20] i don't wanna boot rockbox on it ... i wanna built a linux kernel for it ... [04:24:55] <[Saint]> We can't access the disk at all, so I think that may be more than slightly difficult. [04:25:25] http://www.freemyipod.org/images/0/09/EmCORE_Nano2G_Nano4G_Classic.jpg [04:25:40] <[Saint]> That means nothing. [04:25:49] <[Saint]> All that is running in RAM. [04:25:56] <[Saint]> We can't touch the disk. [04:26:45] but how to feed the ram without an bootloader? [04:27:11] <[Saint]> piggybacking off the Apple bootloader. [04:27:49] <[Saint]> Things we can do on a Nano4G: run emCORE [04:27:54] <[Saint]> ...that is all. [04:29:19] <[Saint]> The Rockbox logo displayed there is simply displayed because that's the default option emCORE displays on boot. The N4G can't actually boot Rockbox. [04:29:29] <[Saint]> Nor does a Rockbox binary, or any part thereof, exist. [04:31:16] <[Saint]> (the Nano4G was a rather obscure device that failed pretty terribly, very few people own one these days) [04:31:39] <[Saint]> The only worse failuer in Apple history I can think of was the Nano3G [04:32:51] strange ... i think its the nicest ipod ever .. small, nice feeling and good battery ... anyway .. thanks for the information [04:33:33] <[Saint]> It came immediately after the 3G, which if you'll remember, they changed the form factor radically. [04:33:46] <[Saint]> The public was still adjusting to that. ANd they changed it back. [04:33:51] <[Saint]> It didn't go down too well. [04:37:13] thats a shame .. i like the factor ... do you know why we can't access the disk? [04:38:44] <[Saint]> That tests my memory somewhat, I _think_ revolves around the crypto unit. [04:44:58] on the german wikipedia page of the S5L8720 chip you can read something bout feeding the disk with costum software by using the limera1n-Exploit .... [04:46:18] <[Saint]> We have a workable exploit. That's how it progressed as far as it has. [04:46:26] <[Saint]> WHat we don't have, is hardware documentation. [04:47:04] <[Saint]> So once you're in, the rest is pretty much blindly stabbing around in the dark and hoping partial documentation from similar hardware may give a clue.
