Yes, this is correct. When I've wanted to get rid of these in the past
I went into the backend and "deleted all tuners" regardless of system.
This will give you a clean state to start with.

I'm not exactly sure what has gone wrong with your installation. I've
build three PVRs with dual HVR-2250 (not 2255) cards and these have
worked well for me. I wrote a tutorial on how I did it. Perhaps you
might review the tutorial to see if there is a step you missed.
