Not familiar with Jarod's docs so I'll let someone else handle your  
primary question.

But I've found the Myth documentation to be better than most Open  
Source projects.

Not sure what docs you're looking at, but:

http://www.mythtv.org/modules.php?name=MythInstall

http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Setup_MythTV

http://www.myhdbox.com/mythtips/

http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/


And especially the WiKi at:

http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page

The last, being a WiKi, it is within your power to do something about  
it if you find it inadequate :-)
