Thanks! I was using v2.3 before, but I guess its not old enough.

This weekend has been a nice weekend for me. I finally finished hacking my R10. It was almost 2 years ago that I socketed the...

I've been having a few problems with HMO.

I installed the Superpatch 1.1, and named my R10 (ver. 6.1). The HMO menu came up on my TiVo, and I installed TiVo Desktop and JavaHMO. TiVo Desktop has...

Like I thought, It was easy.

Thanks a lot

Hey,

I got Telnet and FTP on my R10, although I ran into a problem. They are both readonly, and I hate pulling the drive! I'm guessing this is a simple fix, but I couldn't find anything on the...

Thanks, I'll try it as soon as I can, but I have been swamped with work...

My bootpage is set to console=2,115000.
I'll try 1 as soon as I can pull the drive.

Thanks

I'm not getting anything, I'll try it as soon as I can pull the drive.

By the way how long can a serial cable be? Mine is about 15 to 25 feet of unshielded cat5 strands I recycled from an old...

Xannor I added that line to my rc.sysinit.author file, and I got nothing at boot-up.

This is my file:

#!/bin/bash

export TIVO_ROOT=""
export MFS_DEVICE=/dev/hda10
export...

Xannor, I feel the same way as you. My hack would never of happened if I didn't also want the programmer so that I could start playing around with Microchips PICs.

Thanks, I thought it was a stupid question...
It just never dawned on me.:rolleyes:

When I comes to computers nothing is impossible, just depends on how much money you put on it...;)

OK, I'm sick of fooling with HDs! I have been trying to get telnet over serial, but can't find anything on it. I have never used telnet over serial, and don't know how to start the connection. How do...

Jamie, sorry I miss understood you, that link is great.

Xannor, there will never be a solution to the prom problem, read about the "chain of trust". BTW I'm a junior at high school, nothing near...

I wanted to ask about this:


Should this screen come up, or will all TCP settings have to be done via telnet?

-wetdog500

Jamie - I'll fix that right away. Do you have links to info on a custom kernel?

Brian, I'm glad you like it.

Thanks

I have used the 2.5 prom with success.

My programmer is not working well with these chips (I burnt out 2 of 3 trying to erase them) so I will just stick with 2.5 for now.

Thanks

I must have read almost all of the posts on this site. I still don't know what I have to do. The info is so spread out etc...etc... (same thing most noobs say:D )

Now to the point...
My aim in...

Do a search for people selling PROMs

The kernel never checks the PROM (Check "chain of trust" thread) This means there doesn't need to be any modification the HD, or TiVo once a new PROM is...

Oh ok!

Thanks for clarifying that for me

Does your kernel have the HMO features?

From what I have gathered 6.1 is the only kernel that works on the R10, but that doesn't have HMO. <- May not be right.

Hi,

I just socketed my R10 today with success :D

I pulled off firmware version 2.27 from the chip, and have been looking for the mods for it. I still haven't found anything... (head still...

Women are by far more dangerous than Hg!

I did some research...
Melting point of Lead: 328 C
Melting point of Tin: 231 C
Boiling point of Mercury: 357 C

So theoretical it could be done, but...

I've heard the stories about hatters and mercury, but I also had a teacher who said he used to dip his hand in mercury, and played with it a lot. He is crazy, but not as bad as people make mercury...

Oh OK, I'll go with a heat gun. A Harbor Tools Freight just opened about 6 months ago near me!

I always wondered what Chip-Quik is.
It mercury would probably also work well... just heat it up,...

Wait, are you using quick chip with the hot air gun?

I was actually trying to get some peoples opinions on if heating the whole chip with a hot air gun is better or worse that using large amounts...
