Hey all-
I've done many upgrades with PATA drives, and one with SATA, and they've gone fine, til now.
I've got a 160g and a 1tb WD Green drive, both sata.
Got the version of MFSTools which supports sata. Mfstools sees both drives, one is sda, the other sdb.
When I issue the command:
mfsbackup-f 9999 -so - /dev/sda | mfsrestore -s 127 -r 4 -xspi - /dev/sdb
I get:
Primary volume header corrupt, trying backup.
Secondary volume header corrupt, giving up.
mfs_loader_volume_header: Bad checksum
mfsbackup: Backup failed to startup. Make sure you specified the right devices, and that the drives are not locked.
The source drive came from a working Tivo HD. The target is an used but relatively new drive; don't know its history. It may have been used in a NAS device. Perhaps it needs to be initialized?
Anyway, I'm stuck. Any ideas would be much appreciated.
Thanks-
Dave
