Title: Not for novices
Review: This book is poorly organized. It has you flipping all through the book and leaving you frustrated as where to begin. I am not a novice. I am a computer programmer with win2000, xp and linux machines and still couldn't figure out where the 3.x tivo kernel is for the 2 Kernel monte method of getting a command prompt on the series 2. This is required to get anything to work on that system. It mentions nothing about mounting specific partitiions (4,7,9) in order to get your drive mounted to your machine. This book needed some serious usability testing from people who haven't hacked a series 2 before. I guess it will make for some good paper for my fireplace. Wait until something better comes out or find better info for free on the internet (which I had to do to get everything working).
Is the review positive or negative?
