Rockbox Installation from Linux
- Download the following file and place it inside the current {~/sansa} directory: rockbox.zip (
wget http://build.rockbox.org/dist/build-sansae200/rockbox.zip http://download.rockbox.org/daily/sansae200/rockbox-sansae200.zip ) - Unzip this file. (
unzip rockbox.zip) - Download the following file and place it inside the current {~/sansa} directory: rhapsody-1.0.2.31.zip (
wget http://daniel.haxx.se/sansa/e200/rhapsody/rhapsody-1.0.2.31.zip) - Unzip this file to receive pp5022.mi4 (
unzip rhapsody-1.0.2.31.zip) - Rename the resulting file to OF.mi4 (
mv pp5022.mi4 OF.mi4) (Oh, not Zero - as in Original Firmware) - Download the following file and place it inside the current {~/sansa} directory: pp5022.mi4 (
wget http://download.rockbox.org/bootloader/sandisk-sansa/e200R/pp5022.mi4) - Boot up your device, connect the USB cable and mount the device. (
mount /dev/sda1 ~/sansa/mnt) You can verify that the device was correctly mounted by going into the mnt directory and double-checking that there are multiple files and folders inside. - Copy pp5022.mi4 to the root of your device (
cp pp5022.mi4 mnt/) - Copy OF.mi4 to the system folder within your device (
cp OF.mi4 mnt/system/) - Copy a recent e200 build of Rockbox onto the root of your device (
cp .rockbox/ mnt/) - Unmount your device. (
umount ~/sansa/mnt) - Disconnect the USB cable and wait for it to reboot. It should refresh the database, then upgrade the firmware. After another reboot, you should be in Rockbox!
- Remove the sansa directory. (
rm -rf ~/sansa/)
