That was exactly my idea. I got mine maybe a year ago, it is a rev H which didn't do the normal tftp boot. I eventually had to install the windows software to get it to boot, but I could replace the dongle.bin with mvpmc and it would boot mvpmc but only an older version. Maybe two months ago I played again and I could boot with just linux some helper stuff - mvprelay maybe, and a second tftp server - and the latest version of mvpmc would boot. But the rev H has some issue that sometimes it won't boot and you have to leave it off for like a minute and then additional acrobatics - I experienced this when it was nearly new and nearly returned it, but now this behavior is reported by others. Once the mvpmc is up, I can watch recordings. I don't think I've been able to schedule recordings though. The behavior is odd when I stop a recording, it just keeps going as the background. I can't remember all the details, I will have to fire it up again. I will give it another try and report the issues.
