  • mfsrestore issue

    I'm trying to take an old 80 GB hard drive and copy it to a 750 GB hard drive. I have executed the command of:

    mfsbackup -f 9999 -so - /dev/hda | mfsrestore -s 127 -r 4 -xzpi - /dev/hdb

    I keep getting the error message of "hdb: drive not ready for command".

    The status error that says: status=0x7f { DriveReady DeviceFault SeekComplete Data Request CorrectedError Index Error}

    I also get a second error that says: status=0x7f {DriveStatusError UncorrectableError SectorIdNotFound TrackZeroNotFound AddrMarkNotFound }, LBAsect=9343692930943, high=556927, low=8355711, sector=154163416
    hdb: drive not ready for command
    ide0: reset: success

    I have done over 30 TiVo upgrades. This...is a first. Any idea what is going on?

    Sound like a bad drive or a drive that was not found when your Linux drive/cd booted. When you scroll up do you see the drive listed among the drives listed during bootup of Linux?

      Yes, I verified both drives as well as their sizes before starting the process.

      The drive is a brand new Seagate. I hadn't even taken the wrap off until I hooked it to the computer.

        I have the message of:

        hdb: 1465149168 sectors, (750156 MB) w/16384KiB Cache, CHS=91201/255/63

        I just tried it again (the third time) and it worked. We'll see if it lasts the weekend.
