Let's focus on these few lines.  See where it says /dev/video0: No such 
device?

You need to run this as root:

mknod /dev/video0 c 81 0

then this:

chmod 666 /dev/video0

666 is not really recommended.  I'd advise you use 660 or 664, but for the 
latter two you need to change the group ownership of /dev/video0 to a group 
to which the myth-running user belongs.
