Yes. It happens for most (all?) of us. But since it's only a minor 
revision, it still works. I get the same warning and NFS has been 
very reliable between my linux box and my TiVo.

Use NFS on your linux box.

Create a new directory (e.g. /usr/local/tivotemp)
Create (or edit) /etc/exports and add the following line:
/usr/local/tivotemp 192.168.0.110(rw,no_root_squash)

then at a shell prompt, run:

exportfs -av

If you get errors on your linux box when doing this, you may not have 
NFS installed or the process may not be running. However, that's 
getting a bit off-topic for this list and you can find many linux 
support resources that discuss that.
