Hi,
Lost the OS disk on my back-end in the week. Fortunately, recordings,
videos and crucially, a database backup from the weekend are all intact
on a separate disk. This was all running on Xubuntu 18.04 with Mythv
0.29/fixes and a Hauppauge WinTV-QuadHD-DVB.
Replacement root disk arrived and I have rebuilt the OS. Am I right in
thinking that I just follow these steps (without going into myth-setup):-
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mythbuntu/29
sudo apt install mythtv
sudo adduser $USER mythtv
mkdir -p $HOME/.mythtv
ln -s -f /etc/mythtv/config.xml ~/.mythtv/config.xml
sudo reboot
then stop the backend, import the database backup using
mythconverge_restore.pl, restart the backend and I should be good to go?
Thanks
