Jeff, It sounds like you've got an unhacked kernel. A kernel without the killinitrd hack applied to it will wipe out all the files that it doesn't recognize....
Adam, You'll need to provide more data so that someone can properly answer you. What version of software do you have now? Is it hacked? If not, do you plan...
The /var partition can get wiped whether or not you have a killhdinitrd'd kernel installed. You need to have some method to clear the log files before they...
My current s/w is 3.1.5f, unhacked. Since the current drive is not hacked, I have to assume that the recordings are encrypted. I have two additional drives...
If your current goal is simply to get more storage space by replacing the current single drive with a pair of drives, there's an upgrade option that will...
What is the downside of hacking my current drive, and leaving the current recordings? Will I not be able to watch them? On Sun Oct 1 9:53 , "Geoffrey Reynolds"...
The downside to hacking your original drive is that it leaves you without a backup. Hacking has no impact on being able to watch your current recordings the...
Update: Figured it out. I had both hard drives on the same IDE channel. As soon as I got the Tivo drive onto the secondary IDE/slave, I was able to copy...
I just upgraded my tivo to 6.3a. Things seemed to work ok but I must have not edited all the files correctly. The tivo boots ok but I cannot telnet in anymore....
When you run out of space it is usually because you have too many tivoapp files (backups) in the /tvbin directory. Delete the unused ones and see if that gets...
OK, running 6.3a and mfs_ftp (latest) with the old kernel I was using with 3.1.5f. Anyone else with this combo successfully inserting programs back to the...
your right shawn, I filled up the partition when I was editing my tivoapp file to insert the patches. I deleted the backup and I have some room. After...
Not really. I'm sure there must be some criteria set forth in the OS that determines when the log files get too full but I have no idea what that might be. I...
Did you do the iptables mod? Your kernel log shows drivers loading and stuff - that can show detail that will help diagnose. ________________ Shawn Stevens ...
When I was re-upgrading tonight, I did a cp rc.* from my old rc.d directory to the new one. I guess I should have not done that to rc.sysint as it seems the...
Here's my rc.sysinit from my 3.1.5f to 6.3a upgrade (on HR10-250). I don't have a file named rc.sysinit.tpm. I attached the only other rc.* file from my rc.d...

Thanks for your help. Im up an running on 6.3a. It would be nice if these and other critical files were posted on the site... ... me at ... Behalf Of ... their...
I've read bits here and there that I can get my HR10-250 to make a daily call via PPP through a custom serial cable to a laptop that's on the net without...
If you would have read my last three posts, you would see that this is an upgrade to 6.3a. It's a little hard to backup an upgrade before it is compiled. I...
You might want to do a search on add63.tcl (or possibly 63add.tcl). This is reportedly is a script that activates the tivo to get the software upgrade off the...
This is a question regarding the Directv HR10-250. I know HMO is not by default enabled in this device. I have read many wonderful guides on how to enable...
You don't need HMO, as it is not available for the HDTivo anyway. You just need to hack the unit by first replacing the original kernel with one that has had...
I read all of your posts. It looks to me like you started transferring your hacked files over to the new partition before you made a backup, hence my comment....
