Ok I got fed up with using Xebian, and installed Fedora Core 4 on my xbox. I then installed mythtv, mythplugins, etc.. al from rpm’s. The install was fairly quick I copied the contents of my FC4 install dvd to /var/www/html/install of another machine on my local network. Then I used the bootdisk found here to do an http install.
Anyway fuck that I am going to buy a real HTPC case, and actually make a plan for the mythtv frontend. The xbox is nice but its not as quiet as I would like, the menu’s are sluggish, ripping a dvd takes an eon (I rip and mpeg4 encode). I think I was spoiled by the pundit frontend.
