This is the wiki for the freemyipod project. Freemyipod is a project aimed at reverse-engineering non-iOS iPods (all models other than the Touch) and creating tools and documentation so that other people can port alternative firmwares to them such as rockbox or Linux. Freemyipod is a relaunch of Linux4nano.
FAQ
What can I do with my iPod nano (2nd generation), iPod classic or older iPods?
There's an upstream Rockbox port for these devices. Go use that.
What can I do with my iPod nano (3rd generation) or newer?
Not much (yet) unless you're an embedded developer :).
On the 3rd, 4th and 5th generation, we have a stable tethered exploit (wInd3x) which allows early, untethered and safe (no permanent modification) code execution. This in turn allows you to run U-Boot and an early Linux port or experiment with reverse-engineering/modifying the original firmware, retailOS.
On the 6th and 7th generation, a font parsing vulnerability (CVE-2010-1797) can be exploited with ipod_sun.
There's a set of earlier tooling (emCORE/emBIOS/iBugger) which was exploiting other vulnerabilities and was a lead-up to a port of Rockbox, but it's mostly abandoned.
