Details

Using sansapatcher v0.2 with r12896 bootloader.

When I run sansapatcher without root permissions and choose to install, it says "Bootloader installed successfully".

Nothing is actually installed. Booting the device starts the original firmware.

sansapatcher should detect when it fails to install and print an appropriate message.
This task depends upon

I believe this is fixed as of http://svn.rockbox.org/viewvc.cgi?view=rev&revision=17461
Could someone verify this?
