Depois de 36 horas de engenharia reversa, o método que bloqueia o iPod no Linux já foi quebrado. Isto significa que o iPod volta a suportar o Linux e que a Apple vai ter que trabalhar mais com sua equipa de programadores para produzir algo que não seja tão facilmente ultrapassado.
A seguir o método para ultrapassar o bloqueio dos novos iPods:
Making New iPods work in Linux!
Here is a quick howto on using wtbw’s code in linux to use a new generation iPod. I was answering this question repeatedly in IRC, so i decided to post this up:
1. Download the code.
2. Plug your iPod in and make sure it is mounted and run:
sudo lsusb -v | grep -i Serial
Look for your iPod device, and the firewireID should be the 16 character long hex string shown.
It should look something like this: 00A1234567891231
This number should be broken up into 2-letter chunks for input into the file, so the above would
look like so:
0×00, 0xA1, 0×23, 0×45, 0×67, 0×89, 0×12, 0×31
3. Edit main.cpp in the hash_crack directory and read the commetns at the top. You should insert your firewire ID where the comments specify, then run make to compile the hash program.
4. Next, sync your ipod with gtkpod, rhythmbox, banshee or Amarok, or whatever you used to just like normal. Once this is complete, you should have an iPod with songs on it, that refuses to view the songs. To make it “see” the songs, you need to run the hash program we just compiled on the iTunesDB file. This should happen something like this:
./gethash /path/to/iPod/iPod_Control/iTunes/iTunesDB
This should output the proper hash for the current state of the iTunesDB, as well as the old hash for the previous state of the iTunesDB. We just need the first value.
5. Write this new hash value to the proper location in the iTunesDB where the hash is stored at address 0×58 of the iTunesDB file. This can be done with a program such as bvi.
Note: You will need to do the process of getting the hash on your iTunesDB every time you even so much as change a song name, or upload new music or video files.
