Ok, I just susessfuly softmodded my iPod. IT FRICKEN AWESOME. There tons of more games.  Like between 15-20+the ones you can download (there just homebrew)

1-Get the Files----
http://ipodlinux.org/nightlys/ (Scroll to the bottem to get the latest build)
http://ipodlinux.org/4G_Installer (These mirrors Suck. As soon as I talk to Xodus, they will be on softmodfiles.net)

2-Extract all the files----

3-Make sure your iPod is hooked up----

4-With the Kernal you un-zipped, rename it to Linux and replace the linux file in the installer folder

5-Run iPodlinux-installer.exe

6-Rename the dd/mm/yy Podzillia  to Just podzillia. Place it in the root directory or your iPod.

7-Place the start file in the root of the iPod. The start file is located at \ipodlinux\start

8-Safely Remove hardware and BOOM

9-You just sucssfuly Softmodded you iPod.

10-Thank Me For Writing This Tutorial

IF you happend to screw up, The software should of made a backup. And if you didn't make a backup, you can reinstall the Apple Firmware. The iPod is basicly Undistructable. If you get a blank screen after boot Install the 3.0 Firmware, and repeat the process above.

Any Other Questions?

Hey,

Whats the advantage of softmodding my iPod other than games... I just feel that games are not worth softmodding my iPod for. I mean, that's why i have an xbox.. because i could play games on it. Not my 5inch iPod screen.

like an xbox? anything i can think of?

afaik its just a mini linux, play games and videos. My friend unmodded his nano because it was so unstable and wierd. Besides, you cannot play doom 2 with just a scroll wheel.

Well you can but it sucks.

Elaborate on 'anything you can think of' because it sure as hell can't do everything i can think of.
