I have a series1 DirecTiVo from 2002. It was most recently running with 2
120 GB drives in it but it started having issues (mostly, rebooting
frequently - like in the middle of recordings or when trying to setup
recordings). I got the instantcake image ($43) and after putzing around
with it for a bit (it didn't support my scsi cdrom and it really wanted
the ide cdrom to be the slave on ide channel 1), I was able to put an
image on a new 250GB drive.

For the networking support (I have a cachecard), I had to edit some stuff
to change it from dhcp to static plus it wasn't starting tnlited
automatically so I made an edit for that. Then I added back on
tivowebplus and the box is running once again like new.
