I'm trying to install a HDD into my Duo and it's not going too well :(
From the off can I say that this is a Maxtor IDE drive and I'm using a IDE/SATA convertor so may be flogging a dead horse but I have seen other posts where people of got these things to work
The box recognises that a HDD is fitted but when I try to initalise the disc nothing appears to happen and if I then exit back out to the main Vix screen there is an error log the first few lines of which are
Initializing storage device
Error:[Failure instance:Traceback:<type 'exceptions.IOError'>:[Errno 5]
Input/output error
/usr/lib/python2.6/threading.py.504__bootstrap
(is there anyway I can cut and paste this log here ?)
I'm guessing this is because of the setup I explained above but thought I'd ask anyway just to make sure
Cheers
