2 things....

i've got a 5.5G iPod formatted for Macintosh, will this work on my iPod?

also, is there a way to install Rockbox using my Mac?

[DontJudgeMeMonk3y]

bootloader wont.

check rockbox website for info on macintosh installs.

[redviking09]

whats the point of rockbox if you cant load the stuff you want too

[DontJudgeMeMonk3y]

you can. there are user made apps to download and you can make your own if your skilled enough.

you dont even need bootloader to use it. thats just for mutiple items on the hdd

[defaultname5542]

were did you get that two loader so you could have those three programs at once

[FingerEater1234]

i have a 5th gen 80 Gb ipod. ROck box wont show on the menu when you get to select if you want ipod linux and apple os and when i try booting ipod linux it says err. I had to use the 5.5 download because the 5 gen download said it couldnt find my ipod. I don't wanna have to restore it... again. please help.

[Madfoot713]

5.5 gen and higher you say? Does that mean you can get it on 6gen?

[DontJudgeMeMonk3y]

depending on what kind of ipod. the loader has been confirmed to work on certain 6gens, but not the firmwares =/
