Tim,
From a fellow MythTV Newbie... The "#" marks mean you have to execute the
commands as ROOT. To do this, type "su", then enter the ROOT password and your
prompt will change from a "$" to a "#". (By entering the "#" marks, you've
made them comments...)
If the command listed in Jarod's guide is preceded by a "$", it needs to be
executed as your 'mythtv' user, otherwise if it's preceded with a "#" as 'root'
via the method above.
Here's an example of what it should look like:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] tgkspike]$ su
Password:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] tgkspike]# /sbin/chkconfig mysql on
[EMAIL PROTECTED] tgkspike]# /etc/init.d/mysql start
[EMAIL PROTECTED] tgkspike]# mysql -u root mysql
[EMAIL PROTECTED] tgkspike]# mysql
Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.
<etc...>
To get back to your 'regular' userid, type 'exit' at the # prompt, and you'll
be returned to yourlocal user account again:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] tgkspike]# exit
[EMAIL PROTECTED] tgkspike]$
