Based on Fedora Core 5, MythDora 3 is designed to format your hard drive then install everything needed for a fully functional MythTV System. Here is a walkthrough of the entire MythDora installation process, including screenshots and a screencast."

    Typo: Myth is at .20 not 2.0

    That's the same number, right?

  3. Maybe it's just because I have kids... by Zordak · · Score: 4, Funny

    The first image that came to mind on reading the title was a MythTV box dedicated to recording episodes of "Dora the Explorer." And then my brain let out a primal scream, because if there is one thing I don't need in my house, it's more Dora.

    there are resources like Jarod's Myth-on-Fedora HOWTO which make this process much less painless.

    I've found that many online instructions make things much less painless, also.

    Personally, I had my backend installed on FC5 in an afternoon.

    I prefer my backend to be installed on the couch most afternoons :)

    My frontend took a little longer, only because I'm using a fairly recent VIA EPIA board

    I'm not even gonna touch that one.

    Seriously, though, good link, and I'm glad it worked out so well for you.
