I'm not familiar with the NZTiVo setup routine, but I have moved your question to the NZ specific area where you should have more luck in getting a response.
Peter.
Working through guided setup (NZTivo) and all goong fine until I get to the connection selection at the end of setup and the Tivo restarts all on it's own. it then restarts in maintenance mode and get as far as selecting sky digital and then restarts again.
Anyone have any Ideas?
Thats not normal NZTiVo setup behavior. Can you tell us which image you have downloaded and installed? Is this on a Philips Series 1? There is no automatic restarts during Guided Setup.

Sounds to me like it is failing the detection of the MPEG encoder hardware which can cause a TiVo to reboot on trying to pick connection settings.
If you have access to an already set up TiVo then put this hard disk into the suspect TiVo and see if the TiVo can boot as far as the main menu. If it does then post your kernel log here for further analysis. If it reboots on this hard disk just before the animated startup sequence then you have a definite hardware fault.
