I have run into this message trying to mount the partitions on my "A" TiVo quantum fireball drive installed on the secondary IDE's master location.

I am attempting to install tivotpd on my old Standalone Phillips HDR312003 TiVo using stevejenkin's series of instructions, and on step 2.7.4 at http://tivo.stevejenkins.com/network.html#_Toc60993977 I get this message.

The drive is not locked.

Is there a command to display all of the partitions on the drive, and more important, does anyone know what the solution to this problem is? HEPP!

thanks very much!

stupid user trick: be sure the drive is on the SECONDARY IDE and not the PRIMARY. :o :o
