Hi

I have been trying to get my UK Tivo up and going with no success so far. I have just got as far as installing the UK image and have come to a stop at the point of installing Cachecard drivers. There seems to be a problem with installing Cachecard drivers on large HDD's (200gb) via PC. I have posted queries regarding this to Silicondust. Among other things, it was suggested I try a native install of these drivers, so I made a serial cable.

I have tested the install of the UK image and the Tivo boots up to the guided set up.

I can establish a connection to the Tivo using HyperTerminal. While the Tivo boots I can see what looks like random symbols with the occasional recognisable word inside such as "Bash:", "no job control in this shell", “Tivo” and finally “logout”. See copy of text below:

I do not get any further than this. Does anyone have any suggestions?
