Just a guess, based on the order in which you describe doing things here:

Did you extract the contents of the zip, and *then* move them onto the
unit? If that is the case, the "hidden" .rockbox" folder probably did
not make the trip over to the iRiver.

Instead, try moving the zip file onto the root directory of the iriver
first and then extracting the contents, "in place", so to speak.
