How to get Vi running on DTivo?

[tivo2go]

Is there a Vi binary for DTivo? also, what about other Linux command like:

less
tail

Is there a chattr for Tivo?

Just find your favorite tool, make sure it does not use memset or the FPU (have to emulate the FPU) and compile it for the PPC platform.

Some of the tools that you mentioned are on the http://pvrhack.sonnik.com site

It runs great. Finally I got my favorite editor. And it make me feel the power of Linux.

Step by Step to enable Vi

1, upload Vim to /var/hack/bin
2, upload lib*.so to /var/hack/lib
3, upload .termcap to /var/hack
4, modify .bashrc to fit your own hobby, like PATH, LIB PATH etc.
5, upload .bashrc to /
6, type: source /.bashrc
7, done.

Any one have the binary of chattr for Tivo?

this is the PPC chattr for running in bash on Tivo... remove the .txt and put in /bin (chmod it) to work (well, this is what worked for me ;) )

It works, thanks synthesis, now I felt complete ....
