I'm replacing a failed 13GB Quantum drive on a Series I Philips. The Quantum was married to a 60GB maxtor, but I decided to replace the pair with 1 big drive.
The drive I'm trying to use is a new 300GB Seagate. I loaded the drive with "Instant Cake" which has LBA48 support. The install went without a hitch. It's supposed to boot off of hda7, and that partition looks good to me..
When I try and boot with the Seagate on the Tivo, I never get past the initial please wait screen. I can tell by feel not much is going on, on the disk. I've tried both the original ide cable from the tivo, and the one that came with the Seagate with no difference. I've tried jumpers both at master and cable select with no difference.
Just to be sure the Tivo itself is ok, I tired a 120GB WD from a different Tivo and it boots fine. However, I can say that there is about a 45 second delay compared with a Quantum boot. This made be suspicious of ideturbo, so I used bootpage to add "runideturbo=false" to the boot params on the big Seagate. That made no difference, still no boot.
Any suggestions.?
