-In order to make your \playertype{} load and execute the Rockbox
-firmware you have just installed, you will need to install the
-Rockbox bootloader. Unless bugs are found in the bootloader code, or
-significant new features are added, you will only have to perform this
-step once.
+In order to install the bootloader, you will need to download the following
+files:
 
-These steps use the mkamsboot tool. Source code is available in the
-Rockbox SVN repository
-(\url{http://svn.rockbox.org/viewvc.cgi/trunk/rbutil/mkamsboot/}).

+\item Open a new command prompt, and navigate to the ``rbinstall'' folder.
 
-\subsection{Bootloader installation from Mac OS X}
+\item Run mkamsboot.exe, passing the name of the OF and bootloader files that

+  \end{code}
+ 
+  If mkamsboot.exe does not report success, then retry or abort.
 
-% Same as above %
+\item Copy the output file (``patched.bin'' in the example given above) to the
+  root of the device and rename it to the same name as the OF file you downloaded earlier 
+  \opt{fuze}{(``fuzea.bin''} \opt{e200v2}{(``e200pe.bin''} above).
 
+\item Safely eject the device, unplug USB and wait for the firmware update to finish.
