Hi all -
Hardware: Humax TiVO/DVR (80hr); upgraded to Maxtor 300GB HD
After doing the backup (which created a 1007MB file which I called Humax.bak), then restore with:
mfstool -restore -r 4 -s 150 -xzpi /mnt/sda12/Humax.bak /dev/hdc
(it completed, told me I now have 342 hrs (264 more than the original 78))
then:
tpip -s /dev/hdc (told me that it had initialized 150MB swap area)
it constantly reboots ("Welcome! Powering up...", then gets to the second screen ("Almost there. Just a few minutes more.)", then reboots again about 1-2 minutes later...never gets to the setup menu).
Can someone clue me in as to what the problem might be here?
If I put the original drive back in, it works.
Thanks....Bob
