One thing I did not mention - make sure the new system has the same 
hostname as the old (in /etc/hostname). If you need to make it different 
you will need to run this after restoring:

/usr/share/mythtv/mythconverg_restore.pl --change_hostname 
--old_hostname="aaaaa" --new_hostname="bbbbb"

Alternatively you can set a custom hostname in the config.xml to keep 
the old hostname for mythtv while changing to a new hostname in linux.
