I'm trying to mount my TiVo's Hard Drive in a PC to repair some disk corruption that seems to have creeped into my hack directory.

I put it into a PC as Primary Master (/dev/hda) and boot from a tools CD, just as I did when I created the hack, but for some reason (memory) I can't remember how I got it mounted last time. I do remember that it didn't match any of the hack info I had read online (like tivo.stevejenkins)

I remember that the partition wasn't 9, but when I try now (I've tried all from 1-9) all I get is "you must specify the filesystem type"

I've tied ext2, ext and vfat; none of them seem to work.

Any ideas?

You may need to enable byteswap.
