Download and open the Rockbox Manual: http://rockbox.haxx.se/manual/manual.pdf The below part is all information you need to get going: >2 INSTALLING THE FIRMWARE >To install Rockbox, unzip the firmware file to the root folder (the >topmost folder) of your Jukebox. When your Jukebox powers on, it >loads the Archos firmware in ROM, which automatically checks your >Jukebox hard disk's root folder for a file named archos.mod (on the >player version) or ajbrec.ajz (on the recorder version). If you've passed this stage and boot with a Rockbox screen, maybe your problem is that you dont have a folder called .rockbox with a dot in the beginning. That dot is important!! Copy the whole structure of the zip file you downloaded to your Archos and you dont need to create it yourself. Or open a command prompt and type: mkdir j:\.rockbox (if j: is your archos harddrive) All of this information is available on the Rockbox website. But I do think we should have a really clear text file maybe in the zips called INSTALLATION or something like that so that noone can miss it... /Svante >Just got a 20 jukebox recorder black bumpers.
