Disk Mode and Dailybuilds of rockbox doesn't work with that build atleast with my 160gb model that is.Disk mode is also present on the r919M build also on the emcore server and the only thing it lacks is the usb hid options in the included rockbox fallback image

decided to try this out seeing that there is nothing much to lose (paid about 16.15 usd for it shipped here:http://www.ebay.ph/itm/360831700210?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649) been browsing through some of the pages and just have some noobie questions to ask:   1.Does...
