Good Day,
I have a pair of old DirecTivos since 2001 which are a SonyT-60 and Hughes GXCEBOT.
I haven't fiddle with the TiVOs since adding the 2nd drives in early 2001 and
the GXCEBOT has been lately rebooting itself and from Forum I picked up the advice to change the drive(s).
My case: Have the GCEBOT with Original TiVo Drive and an added Maxtor 120GB.
I have a 120GB Maxtor 7200rom on hand and want to do:
I.) copy the old 40GB DriveA into the brand new Maxtor 120, ending with a drive replacement and an expanded 240gb system :-)
I have downloaded the MSFtools 2.0 and successfully created the boot CD,
I follow the instructions from <tivo.upgrade-instructions,com>
Placed the Old Tivo DriveA as the Primary Master hda and the new TiVo as the hdb,
1.) the DAVID-Rom is dc and boots OK. No errors.
2.) and ran the command to copy drives:
mfsbackup -Tao - /de/hda | mfsrestore -s 127 -hr 4 -xzpi - /dev/hdb
BUT I get following errors:
#
second MFS drive: No such file or directoy
second MFS drive2: Illegal seek
second MFS drive: No such file or directoy
second MFS drive3: Illegal seek
mfs_load_volume_header: Total sectors (77242368) mismatch with volume header (317363200)
mfs_load_volume_header: Loading anyway
mfs_load_zone_map: Primary zone map corrupt, loading backup.
mfs_load_zone_map: Secondary zone map corrupt, giving up.
mfs_load_zone_map: Zone map checksum error!
mfs_backup: Backup failed to start up. Make sure you specified the devices and that the devices are not locked.
Restore failed:-: Success
#
ANY HELP IS APPRECIATED?
Adding on questions:
Q.1.) The startup recognizes both drives, the original Quantum 40GB and the New Maxtor 120GB.
But if I do mount, only see the Virtual RAM from CD OS start up, should I see the hda and hdb as mounted? If not right, what command should I mount them with?
Q.2) I see comments as if Drive is locked on procedures to use a Floppy to unlock, BUT also see that is dangerous if the drive is not actually locked! What should I do?
Warm regards,
