If you are interested in saving time and work, then knoppmyth ( http://mysettopbox.tv/ ) is the right choice. That's the only way you are going to get a good "out of the box" experience in myth right now.
My myth stuff is in SuSE but I would *not* recommend it for a Myth box. It's only because that's how I started it and I happened to have SuSE disks handy at the time. I've recommended knoppmyth to friends and they got Myth boxes up and running so fast I was a bit jealous. ;) LIke an hour or so from blank disk to working machine. (Not to knock the FC route - it's probably a close second in the OBE department, but my friend tried it and couldn't get the regular x11 display driver to work at all. Forget Myth he couldn't even get as far as KDE.) --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > ". i use gentoo for backend and (for the time being) > slackware-current > for frontend (tho' I want to move both to gentoo one > of these days)" > Can you tell me in short why you prefer gentoo over > FC ?
