After carefully backing up my myth database, I used a USB key to install mythbuntu 12.04 over top of my old system, selecting the installation option to preserve the myth database, as well as all my media, and only upgrade the OS and myth system. However, the mythbuntu install procedure preserved my /etc/fstab file, and then deleted all files in /var/lib/mythtv/{recordings,videos,pictures,music}, which were on separate partitions from the root partiion. I know it deleted the files (rather than reformatting the partitions) because one directory with a name beginning with dot was still there, so the contents must have been removed with something like rm -rf /var/lib/mythtv/videos. There's not much point in preserving the metadata about recordings, videos, etc. in the database when the media it refers to going to be deleted.
