Try this...

1. put the file you need on a personal web area of some sort...
either with your ISP or on a webserver on a personal machine in your
network.

Then, from your instructions:

> 1. bash-2.02# cd var
> 2. bash-2.02# mount -o remount,rw / " this is to make it able to

Then, do this - taken directly from the ExtractStream archives that
you can search thru at groups.yahoo.com...

http_get -T 0 -C 0 -D /hack/bin -U
http://12.34.56.78:80/path/tivoftpd

where /hack/bin is where you want to put the binary, and
12.34.56.78:80 is the actual IP address & port of your webserver
This will get the binary over to the Tivo from just about anywhere on
the 'Net, if you have the Tivo gatewayed correctly - if not, you'll
need to set up a personal web server (Apache works under Linux or
Winders) and "host" the tivoftpd binary from there.

HTH,
