Can't see beyond 137 Gig per disk

[dfr1]

One of the drives from my initial Philips 6000 upgrade went belly up after almost five years of great service. I decided to replace both drives and re-upgrade with IC - latest version, downloaded last weekend. Drives are Seagate 400 GB (A) and 200 GB (B). I applied IC and it worked flawlessly, except for only giving me 259 hours. I then read about and did the flash from the Jenkins CD and still had only 259 hours. Then re-did the drives with IC. Again it went flawlessly, but only 259 hours. What am I missing? Would someone in-the-know please be kind enough to point me in the right direction? TIA!

1) you need to use an LBA48 boot CD to upgrade. see stickys at the top of the forum

2) I beleive that the 6000 is a Series 1 TiVo. You will need to replace the Kernel to allow the TiVo to see beyond 137GB. This is a little more complicated. I think that PTVupgrade has a boot disk that contains the kernel you need.

That's correct - it is a Series 1 unit. Assuming that what I did actually worked, I have done both. The flash enabled the unit to accept the new kernel, and the latest IC (at least as I understood what I read) includes the new kernel. When that didn't do the trick I went to the LBA48 boot CD and used copykern/mfsadd on top of the IC installation just in case ... no joy. Still 259 hours. That's probably more capacity than I will ever need, but the thought of wasting all that hard disk space just gnaws at me :-) .
