\fixme{This is merely a copy of the wiki page IaudioBoot, so this section needs
|
|
a more natural language and also error checking by Iaudio owners.}
|
|
|
|
The \playername{} has a builtin boot loader which performs the
|
|
firmware update, and can also access the hard drive via USB. Therefore the
|
|
Rockbox bootloader can be very minimalistic, without USB mode.
|
|
This also makes it less dangerous to install the Rockbox bootloader, as you can
|
|
always restore it using the \playerman{} bootloader.
|
|
|
|
\note{The current bootloader is not prepared to coexist with the original
|
|
firmware. It replaces the original firmware.}
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{Installation}
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item Download the Rockbox bootloader binary from
|
|
\url{http://download.rockbox.org/bootloader/iaudio/}.
|
|
\opt{x5}{Use the \fname{x5v\_fw.bin} file if your \dap{} is a X5V. If it is a X5,
|
|
use the \fname{x5\_fw.bin} file.}
|
|
\opt{m5}{Use the \fname{m5\_fw.bin} file.}
|
|
\item Copy it to the \fname{FIRMWARE} directory on your \dap{}.
|
|
\item Turn the \dap{} off, remove the USB cable and insert the charger. The
|
|
Rockbox bootloader will automatically be flashed.
|
|
\end{itemize}
