Looks like the flow is not so good. When I tried to extract
a longer list of tystreams my TiVo froze up again even with
the user interface killed off. :(

I checked log files but did not see anything useful. I then
hacked up Playitsam and added a record only option to allow me 
to batch up a bunch of transfer. It also locked up the TiVo 
after about 3 tystreams were transfered. This was with the
user interface of the TiVo running so I then killed that stuff
off and tried again. This time Playitsam ran all night long
and transferred about 20GB of tystreams to my linux box without
freezing the TiVo.

Does this make sense to anyone?
