1 | \fixme{To do: Complete this section for Iaudio platforms.} \ No newline at end of file | 1 | \fixme{This is merely a copy of the wiki page IaudioBoot, so this section needs |

4 | The \playerman{} \playername{} has a builtin boot loader which performs the | ||
5 | firmware update, and can also access the hard drive via USB. Therefore the | ||
6 | Rockbox bootloader can be very minimalistic, without USB mode. | ||
7 | This also makes it less dangerous to install the Rockbox bootloader, as you can | ||
8 | always restore it using the iAudio bootloader. | ||
9 | |||
10 | \note{The current bootloader is not prepared to coexist with the original | ||
11 | firmware. It replaces the original firmware. Therefore it is only useful to | ||
12 | developers at this point.} | ||

14 | \subsubsection{Installation} | ||
15 | \begin{itemize} | ||
16 | \item Download the bootloader binary from | ||
17 | \url{http://download.rockbox.org/bootloader/iaudio/}. Use \fname{x5v\_fw.bin} | ||
18 | file if your \dap{} is a X5V. If it is a X5, use the \fname{x5\_fw.bin} file. | ||
19 | \item Copy it to the \fname{FIRMWARE} directory on your X5. | ||
20 | \item Turn the X5 off, remove the USB cable and insert the charger. The X5 will | ||
21 | automatically upgrade the flash with the Rockbox bootloader. | ||
22 | \end{itemize} | ||
23 | |||
24 | \subsubsection{Restoring the original firmware} | ||
25 | \begin{itemize} | ||
26 | \item Download the original X5 firmware from the iAudio web site. | ||
27 | \item Copy it to the \fname{FIRMWARE} directory on your X5 | ||
28 | \item Turn the X5 off, remove the USB cable and insert the charger. The X5 will | ||
29 | automatically upgrade the flash with the original firmware. | ||
