Date: Wed, 2 May 2007 18:06:33 -0500 Hello again. I tried the steps again, and didn't have to power off once I unplugged the USB cable after putting the .bin file in the firmware folder. Apparently there is an error message, but it cuts off and shuts down. I'm not sure if this is a Rockbox issue, or a harddrive issue. It was working properly with the factory firmware, firmware i'm not sure how to get again so that I can put it back on in order to start from the ground up, or for when/if I need a replacement. If there's anything anyone can think of, I'm willing to try. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Amy" <amy_at_faylen.com> To: "Rockbox" <rockbox_at_cool.haxx.se> Sent: Wednesday, May 02, 2007 5:03 PM Subject: Re: jumping in with both feet - Rockbox and the IAudio X5 > When I unplug the player from the USB cord, it is powered off.
