Hi, A couple of questions that I hope someone can answer but I can't really confirm by looking at things here easily: 1) Assuming that I can get my HDTivo...
My intial response starts with your 4th question: 4. If you aren't sure you want to learn about it, you probably shouldn't hack it. Reason being that even if...
I'm not sure if there's any USB-Wireless Ethernet adapters that will work with the Tivo. What you can do is use a normal USB-Ethernet adapter, and connect that...
There are wireless adapters that will work with a Tivo but they're the "b" versions and not the latest "g" models (I don't use wireless myself so I don't keep...
i just finished hacking the HDTivo. It was fairly straightforward using the Zipper script. You do have to be familiar with Linux, but it's not extremely...
Hi, I picked up a couple of Hitachi 250GB/8MB UATA/100 7200 RPM Drives (Model #H3250B72P) for a song at Fry's, and I'm considering using them to upgrade my...
Hi folks, first time poster, long time lurker. I was doing an mfsbackup/mfsrestore to a new 250 GB drive to prep it for hacking, and after the actual copy...
I'm not an expert like the rest of the folks here, but I've been in the same boat before. This could be your problem...it's a classic first time mistake. :)...
One suggestion: Make sure your video output from the HD Tivo is set to the proper format. I ran into the same problem when I moved my tivo from my HDTV to a...
Thank you! I really appreciate this information... i'm probably going to hold off for now... and wait for the "easy" solution. Just confirming, if I get the...
... Dave, thanks for responding. After some initial research I found out about the slave/master issue, and made sure that the drive was set to Single Master...
Nope...ya gotta hack to be able to use the USB port for anything!Maybe try that zipper script, it's supposed to work well and be pretty painless.Matt--- On Thu...
Thanks Sean! I backed up the drive again without the -x, and used the -r 4 and -x options of mfsadd. MFSINFO no longer works, but the drive pair works fine in...
Matt's right. The USB ports are disabled from the factory, so hacking is the only way to get them enabled. But, the ethernet bridge will probably be the...
Jim S. I upgraded my HR10-250 a couple of weeks ago with two HDT722525DLAT80 250MB Hitachi drives without any problems. I am not sure about your models, but I...
$289 - $40 rebate = $249 (ends 02/09/2006) This is the lowest price I've seen in a while on a drive with this much capacity. I just ordered one for my HD...
Make sure you save copies of all of the rebate submission forms, receipts, and UPC labels. Fry's is notorious for screwing people out of rebates. Be prepared...
Hi, I'm following the HowTo in the Files section, and so far so good, at least with respect to mfsbackup/restore and adding an additional drive (Step 1). The...
You're going to need more recent drivers. Get the latest ones from this thread: http://www.dealdatabase.com/forum/showthread.php?t=38167&page=4 As of now, I...
Thanks Sean, will try those latest drivers asap. Could you look at my initial message and see if I'm even copying the right object files? Or which of those...
Did you make a symbolic link similar to the section below ? On my hdtivo's i have ax8817x.o linked to usbnet.o and ehci-hcd.o linked to ehci-dummy this is from...
excellent advice, though this is probably a seagate rebate, not a fry's rebate. the first time i did a seagate rebate, i obsessively checked the status online....
Because Fry's often has Seagate hard disks on sale with rebates and Maxtors without rebates, I have bought many Maxtors and only one or two Seagates... The bad...
Thanks Sean/Gary, that worked and my network is up and running! Sweet. Now I'm having a problem running ciphercheck.tcl. I get the dreaded: 'couldn't open...
It may be a rebate on a Seagate drive but you have to go through Fry's to get it. I've dealt with Fry's many times in the past and they've always screwed up...
I'd consider Seagate's acquisition of Maxtor to be good news. Seagate has the best warranties in the business for their hard drives. Let's hope that spills...
Ok, I'm a 'tard. When I installed mfs_ftp I didn't replace the s1 binaries with the s2-mips ones. I just did and everything works beautimously. Thanks for...
