[mythtv-users] howIdidit: Debian+Myth from scratch using mdz'spkgs

[Iohan Reyes]

I'm in the middle of a Debian installation myself and have started over 
from scratch.  I have learned many things along the way but I am not 
finished yet.  I can work with Dennis on A,B, and C if he doesn't mind.  I 
also took notes on my install regarding certain things that would not be 
obvious to newbies (or semi-newbies like me)...most of them were related to 
which kernel options to compile into modules and how to enable them in 
debian at boot time.  Also I took notes regarding my X installation (which 
I still seem to have problems with because i'm using an ATI Radeon 9000).
