Swapping HDD's

I would add '-y' to the extra options to fix-disk or you'll be asked to type yes 164 times.
What's happened here?:
Code:
Please select option: fixdisk                                                                   
Any additional options (or press return for none): -y

What's happened here?
I'm guessing that the timestamp on the copy of fix-disk in /var/lib/humaxtv_backup/mod is newer than that in the firmware. It runs the one with the latest timestamp.

Code:
ls -l /var/lib/humaxtv_backup/mod/fix-disk /bin/fix-disk

Removing the fix-disk package would be a way to solve this but it would be interesting to understand what's happened.
 
This is HDR1 - I was testing what would happen with fixdisk in a webshell session if I closed the session. What data do you need?
 
Code:
HDRFOX1# ls -l /var/lib/humaxtv_backup/mod/fix-disk /bin/fix-disk                       
ls: /var/lib/humaxtv_backup/mod/fix-disk: No such file or directory                     
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root       18.7K Mar  2  2016 /bin/fix-disk*

Yep, that's it, -y wasn't added until build 2719

Code:
r2719 | af | 2016-03-07 19:12:45 +0000 (Mon, 07 Mar 2016) | 1 line

add -y option to fix-disk
