  • does this work with ipod nano 1st gene?

  • The only thing is that i dont know how to install games on ipod linux. Does anyone have an idea on how to?

  • yea...it is really easy

  • How the hell you make to put game on ipod linux????

  • To make this clear for everyone, THIS IS ONLY FOR IPOD VIDEOS 5.5th Generation. To know if your ipod video is a 5th generation or a 5.5th generation do the following: On the back of your Ipod is a serial number, if the last three digits of your serial number are V9K, V9P, V9M, V9R, V9L, V9N, V9Q, V9S, WU9, WUA, WUB, WUC, and X3N this means your Ipod Video is a 5.5th generation, otherwise it is a 5th generation. If you want to install linux on your 5th G go to miche.aqua-gero dot com/5g/

  • thx!! works like a charm!

  • Hey for all you vista users for it to work right click on the installer and click "run as admin" then it worked for me

  • wat i did exatly wat dis vid said and i still dont got ipod linux can somone tell me why

  • is this only for 5g ipods

  • thanks dude ive tried several ipod linux installations and this is the only one that has worked for me.

  • that's a fake of ipodlinux don't do this!

    I have done it and you must reset your ipod, because windows don't accept the ipod!

  • workd fine for me took me 2 trys for some reason but worked the second time THANKS A TON the only video that worked for me all the others couldnt detect my ipod tho rockbox is much better sorry lol

  • No video for a while. My comp won't boot, its got a virus. It's all my new routers fault, it SUCKS. and are you two below thanking me? or the video guy? Zeroslackr does work 100% with my 30gig 5.5 gen ipod video. and I do have a gba, so I can legally own gba bios. I also have an nes, so I can run roms as well. Master blaster is my FAVORITE game ever. To bad I can never beat it on my ipod. It's cuz I need cheats on the nes to beat it, and no cheats for the ipod... :(

  • OOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMG­GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG tankyou sooooooo much......but i'm tinkin Don't you need a partition?????? however tankyou

  • this is really cool man thank you very muuuch ¨!!!

  • DO NOT USE THIS VIDEO PEOPLE!!!! This installer will do minimal things, and if you want extras, like Gameboy advance emulators, this will not work. Instead, try zeroslakr. I will post a video about it soon. I just installed with that and it was WONDERFUL! It installs a bunch of emulators, and for the gba emulator, all you need is the bios. That is illegal to distribute, so it could not be. More will come in a video, but this installed in less than a MINUTE! And it doesn't delete your songs.

  • oh that just sucks... When I used this installer to test, I didn't look at the uninstallation... now I have to restore everything on my ipod AGAIN. Then I'll try zeroslakr and respond to you all.

  • thanks man. yea i had like 6000 songs on my ipod and it was a painn

  • um have u done the vids 4 it yet

  • can somebody help ME, everything works exept on the bootlader it doesnt show rock box...i copied the file over and all that :(

  • you need to install a music player. Just go to the ipod linux wiki site for all the extra stuff. This might not work for some people. I ran it on my old comp, and it worked. My new comp calls it a trojan, and I KNOW its not a trojan. It just might not work for some.

  • wat music player though i dont know how to put it on my ipod. i have the same thing extras, settings, and power.

  • hmm, I didn't use this installer, I did it manually. I just tried this way, and it seems that this linux is worthless. theres no point to it unless you want the bootloader. Thats cuz you can't install anything. I even used a live cd of linux to try and get the files into the linux partition. I followed all the steps for iDarcNES and it doesn't work. Neither does MAME. You all might want to try Zeroslakr, it does everything like this and installs a bunch of programs.

  • Works fine for me but i just have extras, settings and power in the main menu...no music?

  • It says that it doesnt recongize the ipod and i wait but nothing happens

  • hey you know how you can choose your firmware at the ipodmloader menu can u tell me or make a vid on how to get iboy there?

  • brova for some stupid reason the games dont work and i cant see da song names ok rock box but on linux it hardly has and options

  • Hey could u help me, i have the 3rd generation and I installed iPodlinux and rockbox but when I press Select+Menu it restarts but it doesnt let me choose the firmware...

    so if someone could plz me :D

  • great job man, i love the videos for rockbox and linux installations, they were better than the manuals on rockbox, and the people who said linux couldn't get put on a 5.5g, you should email your videos to linux and rockbox to use instead of instruction manuals lol

  • it works now i just restored my ipod

    IM DUMB

  • the bootloader menu pops up, but wheni click on it, it cant open it up, wuts goin on

  • i cant get the browser or any of the modules to work

    but besides that the installation was a great success

  • Nahh

    It always says "I tried hard but found nothing that look s an ipod"

  • thanks man ive been looking for a linux that works on my ipod for days
