Well yeah thanks for the suggestions,
videos are actually stored in /video
mythweb is not running yet

so im thinking there must be a problem with jfs,

but with all the problems i had till now, I went ahead and installed  
ubuntu, as I think fedora might just not be right for my system...
thanks though!
