Hi,

An idea of which Humax model might have been useful.

My Humax Foxsat HDR had a fairly conventional partition table and
layout for a linux box.  The notes from when I upgraded 300G to
1.5TB said the original was partitioned as follows:

  /dev/sdb1     2G ext3
    /reserve.info       745920 bytes    Recording reservation list.

  /dev/sdb2     99M ext3
    /fsatepg/epg.dat    4413676 bytes   Program guide data.

  /dev/sdb3     267G ext3
    /Movie/             empty
    /Video/             Video streams

  /dev/sdb4     25G ext3
    /Music/             empty
    /Photo/             empty

I think you need to add the sparse_super and large_file flags when
creating the filesystems but otherwise it was standard.

Maybe the later models have a reserved boot space that needs to be
skipped ?
