I'm certainly not an expert but when I hosed my system in a less
drastic way I booted up knoppix and used it to mount my old drives to
copy off whatever I needed. Search for a directory called mythconverg
and then pull out all the .myd files and that should get you the
database. Even if you can't get all of the files the recordings and
videometadata tables are the most important ones for getting you back
to where you were before your crash.
