I absolutely love rockbox on the ipod6g.
I have been through a number of iterations of them and compile my own custom builds of rockbox. One thing I would do is avoid the iFlash SD card adapters as in my experience files tend to corrupt. With an upgraded battery the iFlash mSATA SSD adapters work very well.
You can use transflac/oggenc to transcode your lossless library and it works really well for maximising space.
Edit: here is a link to photos of some of my iPods:

I had this experience too, but booting into the original firmware and transferring files while there sorted it temporarily. Updating to a daily Rockbox build solved the problem on that side of things too! There was a forum thread about it here: https://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=52560.0 https://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=52560.0
- dotancohen 5y agoRight in the screenshot I see a rockbox bug. The analogue clock shows a quarter to eight, the digital clock shows 20:43.
- asciimov 5y agoI'm not a big fan of RockBox, it's always been too buggy for me. Regarding the iFlash, the best way to avoid file corruption is to transfer files to the iPod while using the Apple Firmware (don't sync with iTunes, just copy the files directly). There is some issue with Rockbox that corrupts the files if the device can't sync the files fast enough. Stock iPod Firmware doesn't seem to have this issue.
