All right, I know this has been asked and answered before, and there was even a .tcl file that would do this for you, but I can't find it for the life of me.

Because I had the upgradesoftware=false in my bootpage, my DirecTiVo downloaded new software more than once before I got around to taking the update. However, I now have some stale entries in my /SwSystem.

Directory listing of /SwSystem
Name Type Id Date Time Size
3.1.5e-01-2-357 tyDb 95899 04/17/05 11:01 676
3.1.5f-01-2-357 tyDb 501748 04/17/05 11:01 700
3.1.5f-01-2-3F7 tyDb 501736 03/04/05 03:33 676
ACTIVE tyDb 501748 04/17/05 11:01 700

Is there some way to make the "3.1.5e-01-2-357" and "3.1.5f-01-2-3F7" go away without applying helical force to the canine?

Why bother? The extra entries will disappear eventually. In the meantime they are each taking up less than 15 Megs on the MFS partitions (that translates to much less than 1 minute of recording time in HD mode).
