AltEPG CD ISO
The AltEPG ISO is a CD image you can download and burn that enables a user (with moderate IT skills) to create a new TiVo Series 1 Hard Disk.
This CD is a self booting linux distribution, script driven to automate and simplify the whole process.
A brief description of the benefits of the AltEPG image:
It is not necessary to re-image your existing Series 1 TiVo to use the AltEPG service. If your existing TiVo disk is functioning satisfactorily and you have no need for the extra tools and utilities the AltEPG image provides, you can find instructions on how to modify your existing image to work with the AltEPG service here.
The AltEPG image is an accumulation of the work of previous teams in Australia & New Zealand, tweaked and modified for the UK AltEPG project by the UK AltEPG Team.
