ohohohoh, Mr Witty.

Hey, is there a way to get Doom and stuff on my iPod Video 30gb? I figure that with video capabilities, it must be even sweller at playing games than a Nano.

Nope. On ipodlinux it's clearly stated there's no support for 5G (video) iPods. However, by the time your warranty expires I hope there will be iPodlinux support for 5G iPods.

blah, and I wanted to play doom on my iPod

Nice tutorial, arab_freak! If you don't mind I used yours to do a Brazilian Portuguese tutorial and put the credit to you and a link to this post.

Listen sweetie, if you don't know what the root is, there's a simple solution. And it starts with a G. It's probably your homepage as well. Since you may not even know what I'm talking about, do me a favor and get someone else to do it for you.

Ah, I found some stuff from Google, and after a week of hard searching/understanding/formatting, I know have iPod linux on my iPod. I just got finish with an episode of SouthPark, then played a good game of Doom. Yep, good stuff. And I wouldn't have done it without you inspiring me.

Lol.

People are such morons.

Somehow they figure "LETS DO STUFF TO OUR NANOS AND STUFF THATS MORE DANGEROUS TO IT THAN ANYTHING WHEN UNSUPPORTED OR WHEN I'M DUMB AS FUCK, THAT SHOULD BE GOOD. I'LL MAKE SURE NOT TO OPEN IT OR ANYTHING USING THE PICTURES BECAUSE THAT MIGHT BE BAD."

arab, some people are asking how to install iPod Linux on 1GB iPods. I said that it's possible but I don't know the correct size to put in aes. I did a research but didn't find it either. Do you have any idea of the partition size?

aes X /pri:????:fat32

Thanks!

No you're not. You thought I hadn't written the whole thing by myself, and said I had a nice clipboard. Way to go.

You need to download the latest version of Aefdisk. You'll find it in the iPL forums link I posted.

So i've been doing a lot of tutorial reading and consulting with my other friends here around campus and were also wondering if linux can be installed on a 1 gig nano. Also we can't seem to figure out the forumala for the partition size, even though we've watched the video tutorial and read through your written tutorial as well.

Any help or advice would suffice.

I wrote it in the tutorial over at iPL:

"For the cheaper, useless, and fundamentally retarded (made with the lower middle class person in mind) 1 GB nanos, use aes 2 /pri:892:fat32"
