Modules with updated config files for monochrome iPods ; ) Just redownload and overwrite!

Ps. New experimental iDoom module. I wasn't able to recompile, so I had to settle for a hex edit. I'll write on how to use it later, but for now, know that there are two versions - one that uses a local doom1.wad [V2] and one that uses a shared doom1.wad [V1] to save space when you have numerous doom2.wads. Explore and try it out!

Hm, from what I've seen with iBoy 0.7.0 [great work], tis better to wait for the source to it than modify older iBoy versions. If you want an instant solution, there's notthing preventing you from installing iBoy 0.5.3 manually the same way as before, but things will just not be as organized as if it were a single ZeroNet module. The ZeroNet system is just a partially redesigned userland but (almost) fully compatible with anything installable in the past. In the meanwhile, I'll need to update the userland installation .rar for some extra warning (concerning the new updater).

You could always send a pm to _ducky_ or fellni and ask them for the source, they would definitely give it to you.

Unless you recompile, the only way is through usage of a hex editor, in which even then you are limited to the number of original characters (thats why iBoy Beta uses "/Config/cfg" instead of "/Config/iBoy.cfg" - there wasn't enough space to change the "/mnt/iboy.cfg" to "../Config/iBoy.cfg" so I had to cut off the first four letters.

Notepad = bad excuse for a text editor ; )
But no, if you want to edit the binary, you cannot open it like a regulat text file. You'll need to use a hex editor instead. Personally, I use Xvi32 - simple n portable.

For testing purposes, I hardcoded the launch titles, so the only way to change em is through a hex edit. When I get more things out and stabalized, I'll release a better version of the launcher that doesn't have to rely on Scott's launcher mechanism and is more customizable (filebrowser-approach). Till then, remember that this is only for testing ; )

Experimental Mac "Installer". I ended up modifying kajow's installation script. It may or may not work (I don't have a Mac anyways). Either way, try out and report results!

Ok this is the ipod mini 2G dude again. I've finally realised that it's the contrast that's been pissing me off, so all I did was delete the config file and walla! It seems like an interesting podzillae but almost nothing worked. For example, MPD not found, changing the settings never did anything (might be because of the missing config file) and the modules and zillas, just a blank screen. Am I the only one experiencing this problem?

Another experimental Mac Installer. This is a modded version of the official Installer, so it should work (I hope). I replaced the old loader.bin file with the new iPodLoader 2 loader.bin file. Not 100% sure if it'll work, but theoretically from the original tutorial of how to install Loader 2 when it first came out (replace file), it should. Either way, try both and see if either of em work.

Also, this time I remembered to make the installer files into .zips rather than .rars. My bad Embarassed

Did you modify the userland for Mac Installation? I assume you didn't, so if not I reccomend deleteing the installer from your site and then I'll send you the right userland.

If by "modified userland" you mean a tweaked and improved userland from the very first release, then no. I haven't uploaded a new userland ever since the first one. Although I do have an improved userland on my computer, there's no point in uploading it as the first one is perfectly functional. As long as it works, its good enough for testing til I get to beta ; P

If there's a major non-compatability issue with the userland and Macs, however, that'll be a biggie. I don't believe there should be though as the userland is tar gunzipped and extracts right to the Linux partition, but I've got no expertise in that ; )

lol yes, there is a HUGE compatiblity issue, as there is no chance that your current installer will work with a mac formatted iPod. The main problem is that it is gonna be trying to mount and use the nonexistant ext2 volume and the nonexistant fat32 volume.

take down the installer and let me send you my Mac compatible userland

Hm, I see. So I guess there'll be some mounting tweaks in the mounting script that needs to be made. Ah well, thanks and yeah, they're gone ; )
