I have a 160G Hinsdale replacement A drive on the way for my 80G Series 2 Tivo. If I decided to add my own B drive at the same time, which part of the DIY instructions would I follow to do that?
Thanks

You'd basically want some variation of:
Code:mfsadd -x /dev/hdc /dev/hdd

Add 2nd drive issue
I added a 2nd drive to the tivo using mfsadd -x /dev/hda /dev/hdb (a = tivo; b = new drive).
When the tivo starts up, it goes through the welcome and then the just a bit longer screens, then drops into a green screen that says that it detected a problem and it is going to try to fix it, don't turn off the power. After a few seconds, the unit restarts completely.
Any ideas? The new drive is a brand-new WD3200JB. The tivo drive is a WD1600BB.

Then you've got a problem due to the size of the new drive - I'm sorry I didn't warn you. You needed this:
At this point, you'll need to restore from backup.Code:mfsadd -x -r 4 /dev/hdc /dev/hdd

Backup?
I was having trouble taking a backup as my windows drive was being reported that it is in read-only mode.
Is there a way to undo the effect of the original command so that the mfsadd -x -r 4 /dev/hdc /dev/hdd would work?Comment
