% $Id: % In order to install the bootloader, you will need to download the following files: \begin{itemize} \item An original firmware (OF) from \playerman's website: \opt{fuzeplus}{ \url{http://forums.sandisk.com/t5/Fuze/bd-p/Fuzeplus}} \item The bootloader: \opt{fuzeplus}{\download{bootloader/sandisk-sansa/fuzeplus/bootloader-fuzeplus.sansa}} \item The version of mkimxboot for your operating system from Rockbox's server: \download{bootloader/sandisk-sansa/mkimxboot/} \end{itemize} \subsection{Bootloader installation from Windows} \begin{enumerate} \item Create a folder called ``rbinstall'' on your desktop, and then extract the OF, the bootloader and mkimxboot into it. \item Open a new command prompt, and navigate to the ``rbinstall'' folder. \item Run mkimxboot.exe, passing according to the following syntax the name of the OF and bootloader files that you downloaded, in addition to a name for the output file and the option argument for dualboot. % The following arguments to the code environment select the correct line out % of the code block. This is necessary as using \opt{} in the code block would % create unwanted empty lines. \begin{code}[firstline=\opt{fuzeplus}{1},% lastline=\opt{fuzeplus}{1}] mkimxboot.exe -i firmware.sb -b bootloader-fuzeplus.sansa -o patched.sb -t dualboot \end{code} If mkimxboot.exe does not report success, then retry or abort. \item Copy the output file (``patched.sb'' 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{fuzeplus}{(``firmware.sb''} above). \end{enumerate} Please now go to \reference{ref:finish_install} to complete the installation procedure. \subsection{Bootloader installation from Mac OS X and Linux} \begin{enumerate} \item Create a folder called ``rbinstall'' in your home directory, and then extract the OF, the bootloader and mkimxboot into it. \item Open a new terminal, and navigate to the ``rbinstall'' folder. \item Run mkimxboot, passing the name of the OF and bootloader files that you downloaded, in addition to a name for the output file and the option argument for dualboot. % See above for the code environment arguments explanation. \begin{code}[firstline=\opt{fuzeplus}{1},% lastline=\opt{fuzeplus}{1}] ./mkimxboot -i firmware.sb -b bootloader-fuzeplus.sansa -o patched.sb -t dualboot \end{code} If mkimxboot does not report success, then retry or abort. \item Copy the output file (``patched.sb'' 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{fuzeplus}{(``firmware.sb''} above). \end{enumerate} Please now go to \reference{ref:finish_install} to complete the installation procedure.
