701 | Using a specially crafted redirect file combined with special firmware builds | ||
702 | that allow the boot drive to be passed from the bootloader, some devices can | ||
703 | run Rockbox from a MicroSD card. You can even direct the bootloader to run the | ||
704 | firmware from a different folder within the SD card if desired. | ||
705 | \note{ | ||
706 | Each supported model looks for a specific redirect file | ||
707 | (file extension is unique to each model). | ||
708 | } | ||
709 | |||
710 | Create \fname{/rockbox\_main.\redirectext{}} in the root of the SD card. | ||
711 | The redirect file should contain a single line denoting the path to the root | ||
712 | of the desired \fname{.rockbox} directory. A single forward slash ``/'' indicates | ||
713 | \fname{/.rockbox} in the root of the sd card. | ||
714 | \note{The redirect file does not work when placed on the internal drive.} | ||
715 | |||
716 | If instead you wanted to run the Rockbox from SD card \fname{/mybuild/.rockbox} | ||
717 | then your \fname{/rockbox\_main.\redirectext{}} file should contain:\\ | ||
718 | \begin{exampleredirect} | ||
719 | /mybuild/ | ||
720 | \end{exampleredirect} | ||
