    For info, it turns out that NZ Xtra *requires* catdog's tivoapp fix (thanks mate!). I also tried maxnet, which did not require the tivoapp fix.
    Philips TiVo Series 1, Turbonet, 320GB, oztivo 1.6.2, NZ Emulator (8000), Akl Sky Digital Satellite

    Perform hack on tivo without copying to PC

    To make things easier (and quicker over a serial connection) the hack can be done without having to copy the file to PC.
    Use at your own risk.
    The commands to enter are in bold. Make sure the filesize is reported as 6575372 after entering the first command before continuing with the remaining commands.

    Code:
    [TiVo [p0] ~]# ls -al /tvbin/tivoapp
    -rwxrwxr-x   1 0        0         6575372 May 30  2002 /tvbin/tivoapp
    [TiVo [p0] ~]# rw
    File system is now READ/WRITE.
    [TiVo [p0] ~]# cp /tvbin/tivoapp /tvbin/tivoapp.isp
    [TiVo [p0] ~]# echo -ne "\x0" | dd conv=notrunc of=/tvbin/tivoapp.isp bs=1 seek=5321383
    1+0 records in
    1+0 records out
    [TiVo [p0] ~]# echo -ne "\x1" | dd conv=notrunc of=/tvbin/tivoapp.isp bs=1 seek=5321647
    1+0 records in
    1+0 records out
    [TiVo [p0] ~]# mv /tvbin/tivoapp /tvbin/tivoapp.bak
    [TiVo [p0] ~]# mv /tvbin/tivoapp.isp /tvbin/tivoapp
    [TiVo [p0] ~]# chmod +x /tvbin/tivoapp
    [TiVo [p0] ~]# ro
    [TiVo [p0] ~]# reboot
    If you experience problems, make sure your ISP details are correctly set in the following files (the installer cd should do this for you if the modem option was selected):
    /etc/tclient.conf - telephone number
    /etc/ppp-options - username
    /etc/pap-secrets - password
    Details can be found in the oztivo wiki
