Dave,
If you have an H2, the latest build using the new linux kernel (2.4.31) will allow you to boot flawlessly without using the incantation I posted for H2s which make itself into the Wiki. You can download the latest nightly build from:
make sure you download a version that ends in -2.4.31 that way you'll pick up the latest kernel.
Please keep in mind that this is a development build so some things may be unstable though stability has drastically improved in the last month or so. I've had mixed reports about this version working on mythtv 0.2.0 but only about the live tv functionality. Give it a try and let me kow if
- it boot cleanly,
- it works with mythtv 0.2.0.
If you can't get mythtv-0.2.0 to work, capture traces from both your backend and mvpmc and post them here so I can point you in the right direction.
Cheers...
Sergio
