to bequeath me with a server they wanted to throw away and I've decided
to attempt to turn it into a Myth TV back-end (front-end TBD). I
wanted to start by asking if anyone had an opinion on Mythbuntu with a
focus on ease of use(i'm familiar with ubuntu)?</font>

<br>_______________________________________________<br></blockquote><div><br>What are you planning on using for a tuner? I used to use Fedora with Wilson's HOWTO, then Mythdora because it was easier, but when I tried using my Set Top Box with firewire I had so many problems that I switched to Mythbuntu. I'm currently running a Mythbuntu 7.10 backend upgraded to Myth .21 with several Mythbuntu 8.04 Front Ends and I doubt I'll ever go back to Mythdora, but I wouldn't necessarily put down Mythdora, especially since I haven't used it since version 4. If you're already familiar with Ubuntu, Mythbuntu might be the way to go.<br>
