i was wondering if anyone could give me a walkthrough on how to set up the podzilla program for my 30g photo. that stuff is really confusing plus info on how to make it play vids with sound
have a look at this: http://ipodlinux.org/4G_Installer if you follow the steps it should work (it did for me)
reboot it into disk mode (centre and play while the apple logo is showing), and plug it into your computer. If its seen as a removable drive you can: 1) Run the linux installation program with the /r command(hope you chose to create a backup). It will undo the changes and you can try again. Or give up, your choice. 2)Or you may need to restore the apple firmware(hope your music is backed up). Again you can try again to load linux on it, but follow the instructions exactly as said, dont skip any steps.
*Cough, told you so, lol* Only joking. When I had a little trouble with the ipod linux, I just slipped it into disk mode (which forces it to mount on your pc) then I just manually erased the full contents of the iPod. then I restored it and it has been fine ever since. You shouldn't have a problem doing the same, but if you get stuck, by all means post back, and I'll go into more detail with you when I get the moment ;-)
ok i will hook it up but you will just have to tell me what to delete and where to restore the info back onto the ipod Oh and also im not using a mac its a windows xp
When in disk mode, if its recongnized as an ipod you can use the ipod updater to restore it. If not you can do a quick format (right click on removable drive) use fat32 and make sure its quick format. Then its going to be recognized with ipod updater.
