Sounds like you just need to change the order in which services are
started. How to do that depends on what distro you are running, but most
of them allow you to set the order of startup, so that you could have
dhcpd start before mythbackend. You might also need to have a sleep
command in the mythbackend script, to delay startup just long enough for
the HDHR to complete it's DHCP negotiation.
