I decided, therefore, to start messing around with it out of spite. Using this file, placed in this program, you can mess with some fun stuff. You can also completely destroy your iPod. Today, I learned a new button combination never before encountered: hold down the middle button and the play/pause button, after plugging in your iPod to the computer, and it will boot into disk mode directly. This enables many other options, such as reformatting (which I’m doing as I type this). It’s also great news for when you bork the iPod trying to install the classic theme.
