You know, I think he was actually asking about software for getting music onto the thing.
Personally, I don't think it's all that great a music player for the money, and really rather overpriced. You can buy a 20gig Rio Karma for a lot less, and that comes with an ethernet dock. The software for it is also cross-platform using Java - Rio Music Manager Lite (RMML). I don't own a Rio Karma, but if I wanted a pure music player, I'd buy one, no doubt about it. -DMZ On Fri, 2005-07-15 at 14:39 -0400, Koffi Kpetigo wrote: > I'm not sure if there's only ONE project for linux on the ipod, but I do > remember reading somewhere that if the install fails, you can easily go > back to the apple firmware on the ipod: > http://www.ipodlinux.org/FAQ#What_if_something_goes_wrong.3F > > so, as far as you backup your music first, you should be fine.
