It does because it needs to reformat your iPod to make a Linux partition and reformat the FAT32 partition.

does rockbox do that too? (im assuming it does.)

Your better off doing the manual install if you are going to use ipodlinux it is very easy and i did not wipe my music like it said it would. I have done it a few times to my ipod works get doing it manual.
here is the tut (http://ipodlinux.org/Installation:_W...datacorruption )

lf you do not want to do any formating there is are easy installs that puts it on the root of your iPod HD just like Rockbox. just a quick easy install as Rockbox.(iPodLinuxManager, EZiPL, or iPLGottaPhase)

Rockbox rules. Much easier then ipodlinux and far better to mod quickly.
