I have found the EFI thing to be a bit of a red herring... you can effectively work around the problem by converting your iPod to FAT32 (i.e., a "Windows iPod"). This is easily done if you have access to a Windows machine with iTunes. Once the conversion is done, you no longer require Windows. The downside to this is that it requires deleting all the data on your iPod and re-loading it. -- Ben Steeves _ bcs@xxxxxxxxxx The ASCII ribbon campaign ( ) ben.steeves@xxxxxxxxx against HTML e-mail X GPG ID: 0xB3EBF1D9 http://www.metacon.ca/bcs / \ Yahoo Messenger: ben_steeves
