I have the 20GB, which is why I originally used the 20GC.mi4. I wasn't sure what the H10.mi4 was for, since there is also a 5GB.mi4 file. I followed the manual as well as the instructions below, and still having problems.

Which model of H10 do you have? H10_20GC.mi4 is for 20GB models, and H10.mi4 is for 5/6GB models. I suggest following the installation instructions as given in the manual:

Thanks for that. I installed the new H10.mi4 as well as H10_20GC.mi4 into the System directory, but now rockbox hangs at the ROCKbox splash screen. with "Loading..." but it never completes loading. I believe that I originally had H10_20GC.mi4 in there, but I had the same problem, so I added the H10.mi4. Did I miss a step?

Thanks,

I'd guess an old bootloader too. It's probably loading the old style
rockbox.h10 file instead of the newer rockbox.mi4. Delete the
rockbox.h10 file from both the root directory and from inside the
.rockbox directory if it's there too. You should still have a
rockbox.mi4 file inside the rockbox directory. If the bootloader
complains about not being able to find rockbox.h10 the next time you
power on, then you need to download an up-to-date bootloader from
http://download.rockbox.org/bootloaders/iriver/
and put it in your System directory, replacing the old bootloader that's there.
