1. A 32MB SD card formatted ext4 and having an identical filesystem to a working stick (the same files, the same permissions, the same UUID) - is not seen as a PVR device. When I try to record anything it says it needs to format a PVR device and displays only the root device. The SD card is not seen in the OSD, but it's mounted correctly and I can see it via ssh. Most likely PVR devices need to have a minimum size.
2. I took a 2GB stick and formatted it in the TV as a PVR device. I did a small recording. Used SSH, deleted the CONTENTS folder and created a symlink to my NFS share. (Before I copied CONTENTS/NewBoard.ss to my CONTENTS folder on the NFS share). Recording to network share worked correctly.
3. I tried to use the 2GB stick with the dd'ed filesystem from my 8GB PVR device. The TV complained that the filesystem was corrupt and offered to fix it. However it showed disk capacity as 0kb, and it didn't manage to fix anything.
I will try with a 1GB stick, but I expect it to work...
