Have you tried booting without the cache card to see if it will boot any further?

Not yet, i'm still not sure about the image.. i'll reburn and try again.

Did you use the standard 127mb partition swap size.

Yes i did.

What brand and model of HDD are you using.

Segate Barracuda 7200 ST3250824a - its much less power consumption that most others, less than .5 of an amp vs .9 of an amp for say WD drives.

Has this tivo worked before, or is this a first install.

Yes was fine with its 40 GB drive

Even though this is not the cause of your current problem, make sure you fix the fault mentioned here to stop other problems later.

I will do this when i get it up and running.


Hmnn seems that when the drive is reburned there is a Image error at the last part of it ie 99% says there is some error with image...

i need to make sure im using the correct image, can someone give me the path to the correct image, ie ftp://orac.caffeine.co.nz/...

the beta image doesnt seem to boot at all, and the non beta boots but has that error at the end..

Thanks for your help!
