Usually early signs of hard drive failure if it is getting more frequent.
Try another drive and see if the problem goes away.

Current config: OzTivo 1.5, Philips Series1
Come home to find Tivo frozen. The picture is static & there is no sound. Web interface won't connect. Can't even telent into the Tivo. Hard reboot and all is well. It is almost a daily occurance at the moment.
This problem used to happen very very occasionaly, and I just lived with it. It seems to have become more frequet sisnce I mooved to the new EPG/emmulator location. This may be just a coincidence.
Any ideas.
Geoff.
What Peter says is correct but I will also add that if you are using a Turbonet (or equivalent) please ensure you have the line "timing=16" in the oztivo.conf file located in the /etc directory. If it only says "timing=3" then change it to 16, save and reboot.

NOW ALSO REPAIRING FETCH TOO!
My friends and I had the same problem with nzTiVo image 1.5. Disabling tivoweb(plus) in rc.sysinit.author fixed the problem. Reimaging with OztiVo 1.6 also fixes the problem.
TiVo Series3 TiVoHD x2
Can you post your etc/rc.d/rc.net I think timing was set there in 1.5.
How to Upgrade OzTiVo Image shows how to do the upgrade. Hundreds have used it with only a couple having major issues. But as with all the advice offered if it breaks you get to own all the pieces :-)
But certainly worth doing as future updates will be painless.
