RE: [mythtv-users] New MythDora v1.4
I've just been informed that the autoks.cfg file is bad and thats why it's not installing correctly if you choose Auto install. So please use the custom install until I can get another ISO up. Sorry for the inconvience. Dennis The new 1.4.1 ISO is now up. Works much better now :-). http://g-ding.tv/?q=MythDora Torrent is coming soon. For those of you that need a description: MythDora is a FC3/OS with MythTV-0.18.1 all on one CD. This CD will install on all kinds of PVR builds. The link will give you a better description though.

Re: [mythtv-users] New MythDora v1.4
All the same, some info has been added on the home page of the site so that people can quickly understand what is being offered. More information is usually not a bad thing... right? I'd also like to take this opportunity to let everyone know that the torrent for v1.4 is up and running, so now you can d/l via HTTP or BT. Users choice. I'll also ask that if you go the BT route, pretty please with a cherry on top, can you leave your client open. As always, feedback (both positive and negative) are welcomed. Please post those comments on the forums at g-ding.tv. gs On 17 Aug 2005 09:39:50 -0700, Jim Reith [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: The very first selection in the list from plugging MythDora into Google states http://www.pvrguide.no-ip.com/bbs/index.php?showtopic=4987 MythDora is a FC3/OS with MythTV-0.18.1 all on one CD.
