Post subject:  Database amnesia?

I'm a little peeved off now... I just rebooted my R5E50 (as I have a few times in the past week) - and for some reason it's now, well... forgotten everything.

All the channels have vanished. MythWeb is back to the default settings. The network interface changed to use DHCP rather than the static IP I had configured it to use. /var/lib/mysql/mysql/mythconvert shows lots of very small database files :(

All personal files for each user are still there, as are all the recorded programs from before it was rebooted.The mythtv user though has pretty much nothing in it's users directory. It's like it's just gone back to a fresh install.

I even checked if the install CD was still in the drive in... but nope.

Any idea what might have happened? I'm about to spend another hour configuring everything again (DVB-T takes ages when you have to enter the frequencies manually cos auto-search doesn't work!) so want to make sure this doesn't happen next Sunday as well...

Oh well, reconfigured and now it's completely broken :( Something went VERY, VERY wrong somehow...

So now I'm doing a complete reinstall. Sigh!
