 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.

If your goal is to get as many people to use your program as

useful open source programs get lost in obscurity for the simple

So is MythDora like KnoppMyth, but with Fedora instead of Debian? If
so, since it has ivtv .3.6w is it more likely to work with my PVR-500
from scratch? If so I'll try it.

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.

But new people join the list all the time, so while you may have known

Bittorrent download, MD5's check out
I did the automatic graphical install on the following hardware:

Nforce 2 chipset;

2 x PVR250 Cards;

I am trying again to see if a different installation method helps.
Strange thing, when the installer first starts, it assumes an NFS 
installation, timesout trying to contact 192.168.1.5 then allows a change of 
installation method to CDRom etc

After this, it complains about a missing package interactive...

Yes very strange. Try and install with the custom graphical instead
and see if you get any further. This will look just like any Fedora
Core install. When you get to the package list, uncheck EVERYTHING
and then pick and choose what you would like to install.
