forked from len0rd/rockbox
Fork of rockbox tailored for ipod classic
The ipod video build has a MAX_PHYS_SECTOR_SIZE of 1024. This meant it would refuse to boot on drives with sectors larger than 1024 bytes, even if those drives don't actually require the workaround originally intended for the 80GB 5.5G's drive. ata_init() will now, if the drive claims to have >512 byte sectors, try and read sector 1 to determine if the drive is capable of emulating 512-byte sector accesses. If this succeeds, we assume the drive is better at it than us (this is very likely to be true) and set phys_sector_mult to 1, disabling the workaround and ensuring the drive will work regardless of sector size. Making use of this change requires that you build and install an updated bootloader as well as the main build; a new iPod bootloader will be released soon, so if you can't do this yourself, be patient. git-svn-id: svn://svn.rockbox.org/rockbox/trunk@25646 a1c6a512-1295-4272-9138-f99709370657 |

Build Your Own Rockbox
1. Check out 'rockbox' from SVN (or extract a downloaded archive).
$ svn co svn://svn.rockbox.org/rockbox/trunk rockbox
or
$ tar xjf rockbox.tar.bz2
2. Create a build directory, preferably in the same directory as the firmware/
and apps/ directories. This is where all generated files will be written.
$ cd rockbox
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
3. Make sure you have sh/arm/m68k-elf-gcc and siblings in the PATH. Make sure
that you have 'perl' in your PATH too. Your gcc cross compiler needs to be
a particular version depending on what player you are compiling for. These
can be acquired with the rockboxdev.sh script in the /tools/ folder of the
source, or will have been included if you've installed one of the
toolchains or development environments provided at http://www.rockbox.org/
$ which sh-elf-gcc
$ which perl
4. In your build directory, run the 'tools/configure' script and enter what
target you want to build for and if you want a debug version or not (and a
few more questions). It'll prompt you. The debug version is for making a
gdb version out of it. It is only useful if you run gdb towards your target
Archos.
$ ../tools/configure
5. *ploink*. Now you have got a Makefile generated for you.
6. Run 'make' and soon the necessary pieces from the firmware and the apps
directories have been compiled, linked and scrambled for you.
$ make
$ make zip
7. unzip the rockbox.zip on your music player, reboot it and
*smile*.
If you want to build for more than one target, just create several build
directories and create a setup for each target:
$ mkdir build-fmrecorder
$ cd build-fmrecorder
$ ../tools/configure
$ mkdir build-player
$ cd build-player
$ ../tools/configure
