Hi.
You said
I believe what you do, is to load the firmware update, whether
rockbox
or not, into the player, and then "run" it using the archos's internal
memories. Correct me if I'm wrong. I'm still trying to get hold of a
unit that will take the rockbox software.
Not quite. This is doable (it's called flashing the firmware), but
usually, what happens is that the firmware already in ROM checks the HD for
a file with a certain name. If the file exists, the firmware in that file is
loaded. If not, the firmware in ROM is used.

Nick's sort of right, in that the firmware wouldn't be affected by the
size of the drive, as it's written into ROM, not to the hard disk,
except for the installation file when you first copy it to the drive.
