This will slow down the transfer rate but should act much more stable.

264

Note: The FireWire code of Linux 2.4.21 (and newer) seems to be much more

265

stable: try to upgrade your kernel if you have crashes and oopses.

267

Note: Firewire works very good with Linux 2.6. If you have Problems

268

with Linux 2.4, you may wan't to upgrade to 2.6 !

Also note that you will need a fdisk for DOS-Style partitions. The kernel you are running has also to support

DOS-Style partitions (to access the device after you converted it) and Mac partitions (to read the firmware).

Unplug the iPod and pray. If everything went well, the iPod boots up :).

(Btw: If you can't get the iPod into diskmode again, try this: Reboot the iPod by pressing

'MENU+PLAY' ~ 5 seconds. While the iPod is booting, press (and hold) |<<+>>| (=Forced Diskmode))

GNUpod can coexist with iTunes and other programs for the iPod.

857

990

858

991

You have to do this because GNUpod stores it's information in the GNUtunesDB, other programs are accessing the

859

992

iTunesDB directly. After you did something with eg. iTunes, the GNUtunesDB would be 'outdatet' and you would

860

lose any changes you made with iTunes. Running <CODE>tunes2pod.pl</CODE> will write a new GNUtunesDB wich

993

lose any changes you made with iTunes. Running <CODE>tunes2pod.pl</CODE> will write a new GNUtunesDB which

861

994

reflects the content of the current iTunesDB.
