This really depends on what distribution of Linux you'll be using, and
what hardware you have, or plan to use.
This link is great:

But certainly start out with the http://www.mythtv.org/ page. Be sure to
look at the General Info / Lists page, as it contains details about
prerequisites.
And of course, perhaps start out by going to the bookstore and picking up
a Linux book (select a distribution) that perhaps contains the latest or
near latest Linux install CDs. Install it a few times, play with it,
screw it up, and re-install. Get the general feel for how things work.
Then tackle the MythTV stuff...
Good luck...
