I ended up ripping out quite a bit of what makes MythUbuntu a
specialized OS as part of upgrading to compiling my own. I prefer not to
compile in support for hardware I do not have. Also added quite a few
things to the basic install as this machine also does a few other tasks
on my network.
Good luck,
Bill
PS - By now the mythubuntu team should have released a 0.21 based
release. They were in alpha testing a couple of months ago and basically
were waiting for the official release. I tried their alpha release but
was unable to get it to boot correctly on my hardware. You might want to
check it out.
