Yeah, I need to get kernel updating instructions back in there in the right
place... And I need to make some further changes to account for the fact you
get only a minimal sources.list now. Gotta go mow the lawn, finish insulating
and caulking around the new screen door I put up, clean out my ferrets' cage
and umpteen other things before my wife will let me take more than 5 minutes
on the computer. :-p
And yeah, just change at-stable to at-testing in /etc/apt/sources.list,
apt-get update, apt-get install medley-package-config to get the full-blown
sources.list. Note that it isn't necessary though, everything that is
essential for a functionaly MythTV system is in the standard config file,
once altered to at-testing.

Just a few more changes to make here and there, but it seems the new version
is pretty close to the mark...
