RE: Help - forgotten to chmod rc.sysinit

["Graham Kiff" <graham.kiff@xxxxxxx>]

I've managed to fix it.
I mounted hdX4, copy chmod from bin to a DOS formatted floppy
Re-booted using Dylan's boot disk (doesn't have chmod)
Mounted fd0, ran chmod against my rc.sysinit
Boot fine again
Phew!!

Cheers
Graham

LOL,

Reminds me I should update my HowTo with a section on how to avoid
doing
this :)

Chris Bond did this a while back, but I think he had a linux PC he
could
slap the tivo disk into to chmod it.....
Why not get a 1 disk linux distro (ipcop maybe?) - you may find it has
chmod
on it.
Or the tivomad boot floppy?
