    Follow the instructions Darren gave (re-check them if you printed it, as I updated it yesterday) and do each menu item only in the order they appear.

    ie start at the top and work your way down the list.

    Peter,

    I re-imaged the hdd this evening, Ifollowed the prompts and completed them one by one. When I re-installed the hdd in the TiVo I got up to the network connections where it failed due to no tone available. I suspect I lost the drivers to my chachecard network card.

    what could have gone wrong?

    Are you sure it's a cachecard in your machine?

    Were there any lights on the cachecard?

    When you setup networking on the setup what options did you choose?

    Peter,

    I'll have to double check the card and get back to you. I will redo the image this evening. I'm pretty sure i didn't give the option to choose networking in the options menu.

    In your case, when running the installer you will need to use the following:
    First Update installer
    Second Select disk
    Third Install the Image
    fourth setup Networking, select the correct card and follow the prompts.
    Then Exit

    G'day Peter,

    I re-imaged the drive once again, I did the update-selected disk-install image-set up network-

    I hooked up the hdd back to the Tivo and got the cachecard splash screen, but it gave an error saying it could not find the drivers.

    It went to the set ip guide but failed at"connecting" where it said service unavailable, last time it gave me the "no dial tone" error.

    any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

    Ps- I cannot telnet to the Tivo

    Ok, you are sure you have a Cachecard?

    What version number is printed on it, and what colour is it?

    Please tell me exactly what error message is shown on the screen when booting. You may need to boot a couple of times (or take a photo) to catch it all.

    Do you have any ram installed in the Cachecard.

    Ok, well at least we know you are selecting the right card.

    Do you have a serial cable that you can connect between a pc and the TiVo?
