Apologies to all, espedcially needleboy, who may be irritated by ths question - and maybe rightly so.

The Rockbox faqs tell me I need to install the bootlader and RB software. No problem. I know that I need FWpatcher to modify the hex file and install this in the H340 Root folder. This is the bootloader. Then I install RB itself.

However, everyone is writing in saying "please update to bootloader v5". When I did some searching around, all I could see was something called a ".bin" file....this sounds a complicated thng.

For those with RB installed, is there a thread giving instructions on how to update bootloader? And for newbies, is there a thread that explains how you know you have the latest bootloader if you are installing for the first time?

Many thanks.
