Here's a short synopsis:  Tivo runs on a linux-like filesystem or it actually runs linux, I can't remember.  Anyway, you can
using extremely dangerous methods (unplugging and hotswapping drives while they are running, etc) get a normal 15-60 GB HD in
your Tivo, thus increasing your recording time by 1 hour per gig for basic quality, or 1 hour per 3 gig for super-high
quality.  I think I heard that you're second drive could not be more than twice the size of the original, but don't quote me
on that.

So since I have the Sony 30-hour Tivo, if I hacked it with a 60GB drive, it would be a 90 hour Tivo.  Oh and by the way, Tivo
is great;  a couple of places online are giving away 10 of the 14-hour models a day, so all you linuxheads might want to try
to win and hack.

On the same subject, has anyone done this successfully and would like to earn a little commission hacking mine?
