It found and used the additional partition pair. If you get presented with multiple drives be sure to choose the correct on. Repeat guided setup and you should then be good to go. For the majority of people this step is unneeded and can be safely skipped. I will do my best to outline the procedure as soon as I get it written up. This will result in you loosing the shows on your TiVo so I would suggest using TiVo Desktop to copy shows you want to keep onto your computer before starting.

So for this arrangement on disk, TiVo maps sectors to partitions as follows: These type of screws have a little 'pin' in the middle of the star.

The way the TiVo addresses things by sector is pive making a contiguous "address space" of sectors by just appending each partition's sectors as the are loaded. The only thing magic I used was a quick tool to allow manipulation of the devlist. One key item being the size of the swap partition. Wonder if this is the first step that actually writes to the drive as opposed to perhaps storing info on NVRAM on the motherboard? This hard drive is brand new so I doubt the problem is the HD.
The 2TB drive I was using to test combining on is just a little smaller than the combined size of the two 1 TB drives I was using. For those of you who are adventurous, after copying the 1TB image to the 3TB drive, you can 4k align it manually and then expand and supersize it.
Add notes how to fix hardware 51 and V errors. Finally the Supersize option modifies our new disk to have less cr reserved for commercials and more for programs. Thus if your new drive is 3TB in size or less then the procedure is extremely simple and makes use of the BOLT's autoformat facilities. Originally Posted by Cornucopia.

The zonemaps work in sector addresses, so when the TiVo goes looking for something at sector X, it figures out which partition that sector lies in, then jmfx the offset into that partition.
The way that the tivo points to things on the disk s is via sectors. Fire it up vd just to make sure it is working. A few things to remember, though. Then shutdown your PC and remove the drive. But you could accomplish all of that partition aligning, moving, reordering, etc with dd and pdisk.

Note, the only screws holding the TiVo lid are those on the back of the case. Pretty much any SATA drive will work, however, some llve are more suitable based on their power and noise characteristics. If you purchased a 1TB WeakKnees drive for your Premiere or previously upgrade your TiVo yourself to an expanded drive jmgs will need to use the original GB hard drive to perform the upgrade to your new drive. Then hit the Select button.

Updated 5th Jun - Make Windows approach more prominent. So even though the partition is a weird size, TiVo will only consider the partition to have sectors.
You will see a screen similar to below showing you the progress. Updated Sept 25th - Update hard drive listing including new, more reliable, Tivo Bolt hard drives. Confirm again livs 'y' and enter.
Although I recommend you read through the entire article first to get an understanding of the type of replacement drive needed etc. Drives from other manufacturers will work fine as well. It did the divorce which took minutes or sothen rebooted and all of the recordings were still there, and the TiVo reported the jmfz size.
You can obtain the latest version from this thread registration required. Why am I getting this? I started by copying life contents of the internal drive onto a 2TB drive just using dd.
The list of sectors that TiVo uses is contiguous across all volumes.
