3. Take the .zip file that you downloaded and use the "Extract all" command of
your unzip program to extract the files onto
Note: The entire contents of the .zip file should be extracted directly to the root of
your player's drive. Do not try to create a separate directory on your player for the
Rockbox files! The .zip file already contains the internal structure that Rockbox needs.
If the contents of the .zip file are extracted correctly, you will have a directory called
.rockbox, which contains all the files needed by Rockbox, in the main directory of your
player's drive.
Installing the bootloader
In order to install the bootloader, you will need to download the following files:
An original firmware (OF) from
Clip-Firmware-01-01-35-amp-02-01-35-Release/td-p/144965
The bootloader:

The version of mkamsboot for your operating system from
org/bootloader/sandisk-sansa/mkamsboot/

1. Create a folder called "rbinstall" on your desktop, and then extract the OF, the
bootloader and mkamsboot into it.
2. Open a new command prompt, and navigate to the "rbinstall" folder.
3. Run mkamsboot.exe, passing the name of the OF and bootloader files that you
downloaded, in addition to a name for the output file.
mkamsboot.exe m30pa.bin bootloader-clipv2.sansa patched.bin
If mkamsboot.exe does not report success, then retry or abort.
