Linux on iPod

So I backed up my iPod and then installed Linux onto it, using this double-click installer. Everything went flawlessly. I can play games and browse around in Linux, but for some reason, I can only play my music by using the file browser to go individually to each file inside /iPod_Contol/Music/F**. Not very useful as an MP3 player.

Fortunately, I can simply reboot it into the old iPod interface. Now, to test the higher bit recording functionality of iPod Linux…

UPDATE: Aw, man. The recording isn’t supported on my model iPod. And it is hard frozen right now. Grrr…
