Backup Tivo Drive

August 6, 2008 8:32 AM

Backup a Tivo drive: Is there a way (ie windows or linux software) to clone a series 2 Tivo hard drive using only an XP laptop and a couple of external usb hard drive enclosures? ( I don't have a desktop pc into which I would put the Tivo drive and a second, to be cloned, drive.)

G4L

Download the ISO, burn image to CD and go. You can do a bitwise copy, so you shouldn't need to bless the new drive.

What ISO?

g4l-v0.26 is pretty stable. Grab it from the Download link on the link above, then hit g4l ISO images. It's in there.
