``[INFO] Bootloader installed successfully.'' Press ENTER again to exit
ipodpatcher.
\item \note{If ipodpatcher fails to install the bootloader for you, please
be certain that you do indeed have a supported iPod model and are logged in
as an administrator. If you do, run
ipodpatcher once more and try again. If you don't, then do not attempt to
install again.}
\end{enumerate}

and then double-click on the ipodpatcher icon inside. You can also
