From your postings it would seem that you are not a wizz that can install a myth system with his eyes closed so why would you be playing with the 0.25-beta?
Standard (say 10.04 cause I've done that) ubuntu JustWorks when you install the myth packages.
I've not tried but am confident that mythbuntu makes it very easy too.

Once you have a working 0.24 system THEN get bold and play
Using your ProductionSystem as a play ground will cause scratched knees YMMV
