hello everybody!
i turned my mac-ipod into a win-ipod like described in the gnupod docs
(thanks, steven, for pointing me to those :-)
i build the kernel and patched it like steven described it in his email,
copied the (patched) firmware to the first partition of the ipod and
reset it -- several times. tried it with firewire plugged in and
unplugged, but it doesn't boot. i can get it to disk-mode by hand (press
forward+rewind), so i can re-copy the original firmware (then, of
course, it works again).
it seems to stuck with that apple-logo. i can hear the hdd spinning, but
no attempts to read from it whatsoever... anybody any ides?
perhaps someone could send me one of his kernel files, so i can patch my
firmware with those? this way i can test whether the problem is the way
my ipod-kernel was compiled.
oh, there is some information which might be important: ipod has (had)
firmware 1.20, and is the old 5GB-model (old _real_ scrolling wheel, no
touchpad, no remote control).
what about others?
regards,
florin.
