11.5. Rockbox in Flash 11.5.1. Introduction When you bought your Ondio, it came with the Archos firmware in flash ROM. When you power on your player, this Archos firmware starts, and then loads an updated firmware from disk if present (ajbrec.ajz). An ordinary Rockbox installation only replaces the on-disk firmware, leaving the flash ROM contents intact.
There are a lot of sanity checks. If any of them fails, it will not program. Warning: After flashing Rockbox, never try to ROLO the Archos firmware version 1.32b! This version is a flash update itself. If it is applied when Rockbox is flashed, you’ll end up with a garbled flash ROM and hence a dead box.
When Rockbox is booted from flash, it does not check for an updated firmware on disk. This is one of the reasons why it boots faster than the Archos firmware. It means that whenever you update Rockbox, you also need to update the image in the flash. This is a simple and safe procedure: 1.
Please do not re-encode any existing audio files from one lossy format to another based upon the above mentioned. This will reduce the audio quality. If you have the choice, select the best suiting codec when encoding the original source material. The Rockbox manual Archos Ondio (version 3.14)
