In order to install the bootloader, you will need to download the following
files:
\begin{itemize}
\item An original firmware (OF) from \playerman's website:
\opt{fuzeplus}{
\url{http://forums.sandisk.com/t5/Fuze/bd-p/Fuzeplus}}
\item The bootloader:
\opt{fuzeplus}{\download{bootloader/sandisk-sansa/fuzeplus/bootloader-fuzeplus.sansa}}
\item The version of mkimxboot for your operating system from Rockbox's server:
\download{bootloader/sandisk-sansa/mkimxboot/}
\end{itemize}
\subsection{Bootloader installation from Windows}
\begin{enumerate}
\item Create a folder called ``rbinstall'' on your desktop, and then extract
the OF, the bootloader and mkimxboot into it.
\item Open a new command prompt, and navigate to the ``rbinstall'' folder.
\item Run mkimxboot.exe, passing according to the following syntax the name
of the OF and bootloader files that you downloaded, in addition to a name for
the output file and the option argument for dualboot.
% The following arguments to the code environment select the correct line out
% of the code block. This is necessary as using \opt{} in the code block would
% create unwanted empty lines.
\begin{code}[firstline=\opt{fuzeplus}{1},%
lastline=\opt{fuzeplus}{1}]
mkimxboot.exe -i firmware.sb -b bootloader-fuzeplus.sansa -o patched.sb -t dualboot
\end{code}
If mkimxboot.exe does not report success, then retry or abort.
\item Copy the output file (``patched.sb'' in the example given above) to the
root of the device and rename it to the same name as the OF file you downloaded earlier
\opt{fuzeplus}{(``firmware.sb''} above).
\end{enumerate}
Please now go to \reference{ref:finish_install} to complete the installation procedure.
\subsection{Bootloader installation from Mac OS X and Linux}
\begin{enumerate}
\item Create a folder called ``rbinstall'' in your home directory, and then
extract the OF, the bootloader and mkimxboot into it.
\item Open a new terminal, and navigate to the ``rbinstall'' folder.
\item Run mkimxboot, passing the name of the OF and bootloader files that you
downloaded, in addition to a name for the output file and the option argument
for dualboot.
% See above for the code environment arguments explanation.
\begin{code}[firstline=\opt{fuzeplus}{1},%
lastline=\opt{fuzeplus}{1}]
./mkimxboot -i firmware.sb -b bootloader-fuzeplus.sansa -o patched.sb -t dualboot
\end{code}
If mkimxboot does not report success, then retry or abort.
\item Copy the output file (``patched.sb'' in the example given above) to the
root of the device and rename it to the same name as the OF file you downloaded earlier
\opt{fuzeplus}{(``firmware.sb''} above).
\end{enumerate}
Please now go to \reference{ref:finish_install} to complete the installation procedure.
