Re: iPod Classic 160GB

Very strange. I don't understand how I mad it through the installation 100%
the first time, but the second time I couldn't get the computer to
recognize the iPod while in DFU. Also, concerning my original issue where I
couldn't boot between Apple Firmware and Rockbox Firmware, its because that
feature isn't available for the 160GB bootloader needed for hack.
