DirecTivo (2.5.2) + AirNet = Green Screen of Death

I have recently upgraded my DirecTivo (Philips) to hold 2 x 120GB drives. This upgrade went perfectly fine, so I decided to move on to adding in AirNet. Followed the instructions step by step, and restarted my tivo. Everything looked great. Made it to the point where it was aquiring sat signals (made it to around 96%) and then it restarted and went into the geen screen restart loop. I tried using the newest airnet drivers to no avail. Seemed the only recourse was to revert to my backup and start over (not a big deal to me if I lose some shows). I am in the process right now of restoring. I am not ready to give up on my Airnet (using the zoom air pcmcia card btw) and was wondering if anyone had any thoughts?!!?

Thanks,

You did increase swap (-s 127 on restore), right? The green screen is mfsfix, the filesystem repair utility. I'd be very surprised if that had anything to do with your network modifications.

Hmmm, no actually, I did not increase the swap size. I will try that tomorrow.

Thanks,
