Installing the bootloader is the trickiest part of the installation. We cannot distribute the bootloader directly, and thus need to patch a compatible version of the xDuoo firmware. \begin{enumerate} \item Download the Rockbox bootloader from \download{bootloader/xduoo/X3-v11.bsdiff} \item Get a copy of the original \playertype{} v1.1 firmware from \url{https://www.xduoo.net/firmware-download/} and extract the .rar file to obtain the update image (called \fname{update.zip}). \item Compile bspatch in rbutil/bspatch/ (run make in the dir). \item Run \begin{code} ../rbutil/bspatch/bspatch update.zip output.zip X3-v11.bsdiff \end{code} \item Put \fname{output.zip} in the root of the SD card and rename it to \fname{update.zip}. \item Disconnect the player from USB and let the original firmware boot. If you have already installed the rockbox bootloader you will need to engage the hold/lock switch to force booting into the original firmware. \item Go into the 'Setting' menu, and select 'Upgrade'. The player will reboot into Rockbox upon completion. \end{enumerate}
