Before it jumps to an image, the rk27xx NAND bootloader writes three words at the address in RKW header field 0x14: a magic, its version and which copy of the image it loaded. The original firmware never initialises them: it reports the version over USB and counts its own reboots in the third word, and once the count reaches 5 it reboots into a mode the NAND bootloader will not boot. When our bootloader started the OF, nothing wrote them, so the OF ran with whatever was left in DRAM. Field 0x14 of our own images held a constant taken from some other image. Point it at the last 12 bytes of DRAM, which nothing uses before our bootloader runs. load_rkw() in the bootloader now reads the words there before loading an image, and writes them at the address in the loaded image's header when that lies between the image and the bootloader. Started over USB, it passes version 0. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Change-Id: Ife1d63e361a780c28a9f0626d110552b98bb6b7f |

Build Your Own Rockbox
1. Clone 'rockbox' from git (or extract a downloaded archive).
$ git clone git://git.rockbox.org/rockbox
or
$ tar xJf rockbox.tar.xz
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 mips/m68k/arm-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 generated using the rockboxdev.sh script in the /tools/ folder of the
source.
$ which arm-elf-eabi-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-fuzeplus
$ cd build-fuzeplus
$ ../tools/configure
$ mkdir build-xduoox3
$ cd build-xduoox3
$ ../tools/configure
