Drive Cloning Question

[jed5426]

I have 2 HDVR2's. I had hacked both about a year ago with 2 identical drives. One of my drives has died in one of the tivos. Can I take the good drive and clone it or back it up using Knoppix to a new drive, then go change the MRV name of it?

Thanks... I looked at that guide and while it tells you how to restore from an image, it doesnt say much about the backup. I know how to to a drive to drive copy with knoppix, however I want to know if doing that then throwing the drive in will work. I assume I'd have to change the MRV name, but is that it?

If you choose the option during the interactive guide, it tells you how to make a backup.
