I just got this email, in reply to a mail I sent to the Rockbox list.

Since Seb (seb69war3_at_wanadoo.fr) seems to be hostile to Rockbox, perhaps he'd feel better if removed from the mailing list?

This will load the Archos software. To reload the Rockbox software (because the Archos software has no ROLO functionality), you'll have to turn the unit off (hold down "OFF" for 3-5 seconds), and reboot (press "ON").

> What you'll be downloading is a copy of the firware. The difference is, the firmware is on the chip and can't be overwritten, or ROLO'd. So you need the soft copy of the Archos software too, if you want to use both Rockbox and Archos versions.
