copying tuner settings from one empeg to another - 13/12/2006 18:20
I know this *must* have been discussed before, but with my lame search-fu, I didn't come up with anything.
So... Is there any way to copy over the preset frequencies from my main empeg, once I've gone through all the hassle of tuning in all the stations, to my spare unit?

Does anyone know if a variant of
method 2 here can grab the tuner presets? The method described there backs up the dynamic data partition into a file, that you can then restore onto the same empeg or a different one. Are the tuner presets part of that, or do you need to do something different?

Just try copying the first 4096 sectors of /dev/hda3 from the old system to the new one (or from the old drive to the new drive). I believe that will copy the tuner presets as well as the current EQ settings, and possibly lots of other cruft.

Don't forget that you can grab the entire /dev/hda3 by just FTPing into Hijack and doing get /dev/hda3
