I don't know about bricking it. Putting rockbox on it was the easiest thing ever. I bought one brand new and did it right after I took it out of the box.
how do you do that? go to my computer? its very hard to find the song cuz windows doesnt sort by albums and artists
Right .....For some of us it is.....but for some it just aint......I tried several times but keep stuffing it up. So I just return to normal ipod.
There's just too many things for my abused brain to compute. There's versions, latest builds, etc etc....aahhh just does my head in....

Does it work with my iPod dock or car stereo?
It will work with your dock/car stereo if it is just a simple line out cable. If your dock/car stereo has any kind of external iPod control or USB DAC function, it almost certainly will not work.

Can I listen to music while charging my Rockboxed iPod Classic?
Yes, press and hold “MENU” when connecting the cable. This is both possible with a charger and with charging from a USB port. When connected, press “Select” to exit the Quickscreen you just entered.

I'm sorry to hear it's not working out for yah. I've read some posts about you getting lockups on your ipod, right? Feels kind of odd to me that some people keep having issues with Rockbox on the classic, whilst others don't seem to have any problems. Makes you think Apple might have undergone some hardware revisions on some classics or something. Or perhaps it's just bad luck.
Regarding the cover art; i actually gave up on musicbee regarding the cover art.. And stumbled upon Automatic Cover Tool. Here:
http://act-mp3.sourceforge.net/
And.. it does just what it says, just extract, nio installation what so ever. Nice.. Target is music folder on the ipod.. Save folder image as: "cover" and set extention to JPG. Max image size 300x300. Works like a charm and just press start button. This in combination with mp3tag, i'm a happy camper now.
New build at https://www.dropbox.com/sh/b5xbw6cp4ikfxwn/MjELjmDNJ_. Castor Muñoz made some really cool changes, including the support of all the frequencies of the DAC chip (up to 48Khz).
Quick questions: Say I'm on a build from 12-20-12 on this page http://www.rockbox.org/dl.cgi?bin=ipod6g how do I flash the latest update?
Were you still interested in trying out 48k playback?
Download and unzip to the player. It'll overwrite the old binary.
