I would start with the Overview of hacking an S3, in fact I think lrhorer has a script ready-made in there somewhere..

Does anyone have an image for a Toshiba SD-H400? Thanks in advance.

Check this post out.

FYI, if you need a backup image for the 540, it appears this link is still available.

No, it appears you used it correctly. Did you actually try to mount the drive? You should still be able to mount even if those native tools still do not recognize. Also try using 'pdisk' from the...

You can use tivopart to "revalidate" the partition table (see the readme) so most linux variants will recognize it. Of course, it may be easier just to re-image with a fresh backup image and start...

Not a killhdinitrd kernel at all. You can either use one of Jamie's custom kernels or replace the initrd with a "null" one using the 'replace_initrd' utility described here.

Regarding your previous post, don't worry about patch you shouldn't have to compile anything. You don't even need mfs_* tools to implement this. The helper file takes care of everything. Shouldn't...

You don't want to be running 'mfs_ftp_helper.patch' in fact you don't even need it on your machine. Upload 'tyftpd.tcl' and 'mfs_ftp_helper.mips64' (for TivoHD); rename 'mfs_ftp_helper.mips64' to...

Make sure you are using the 64-bit mfs_utils for the TivoHD found here.

The tvapppatch(es) file(s) may be in a DOS style rather than UNIX. If you 'cat' them and see the ^M characters - those are dos-style line endings. You can either run 'dos2unix' from AlphaWolf's...

It's in the 11.0k rollout thread here.

Firs you need to make sure you mount your tivo drive partiton. I thought you said your root was the 6th partition. If so
mount /dev/sda6 /tivo
cp tvapppatch.tcl tvapppatches-11.0k.tcl...

Ok I see the problem; it's a little confusing. Yes, "tvapppatch.tcl" is the main script and the "tvapppatches.tcl" is the actual patch file. It was renamed to denote the 11.0k version. You can...

If you got a syntax error, it didn't patch. You might be missing a bracket or something. Maybe try downloading it again. Make sure you don't modify the file in notepad or anything, you want to...

I'm not sure of your steps. Have you mounted the thumbdrive? Typically something like:
mount /dev/sdb1 /dosThis will give you access to the contents of thumbdrive at the directory (mountpoint)...

Here is the post with all the tivoapp patches for 11.0k: http://www.dealdatabase.com/forum/showthread.php?64081-11.0k-starting-to-roll-out&p=310041#post310041

Yes, same thing. Prom mod, install hacked kernel (either custom or stock with replace_initrd), install binaries, mod startup scripts, disable iptables, etc.

Dude, did you even check the link I gave you in the other post - it's what you need. Here it is again drez minimal image

Try the Image Begging Thread; also not sure if these links still work but here are two for your specific model; link #1, link #2.

On your current root you want to edit installSw.itcl to change the reboot line to exit 0. Then run it; it will install the upgrade on the alternate root and then exit (not reboot). Then copy over...

Here is the thread where Omikron discussed no Atmel crypto chip on the Tivo HD. Here is another thread with someone who transplanted the chip in a Series 2.5 machine. It looks like it depends which...

Usually the solution for repairing a lifted pad would be to solder a small piece of jumper wire to the traces or in this case to the socket pin. Scrape off a little enamel on the trace to get some...

The 'mv' command just renames the file. The new s/w should install upon restart. You could get telnet and manually kick it off with the command
tivosh /tvbin/installSw.itcl

Here are the 'dd' commands for you hardcore types (where's lgkahn when you need him?) tvapppatch is so much easier, but to each his own...:rolleyes:

I have not tested these myself. Basically you...
