Post subject: | R5A30 and Mac OS X Frontend |
Hi everyone. Just wondering if anyone's had a chance to try R5A30 with the Mac frontend, located at http://www.thesniderpad.com/index.php?option=com_remository&Itemid=36&func=fileinfo&id=2. My setup uses KnoppMyth as a backend only, and my girlfriend and I use the Mac OS X frontend on our PowerBooks primarily, so I'd like to know that it's been tested and confirmed working before I upgrade. Thanks. |

Mac frontend should be no different than running the frontend on anything else. This does work w/ R5A30. However, if you backup and auto upgrade, the db schema is backup and restored. If you didn't fix this, it won't work... Code: #!/bin/bash The above script should fix you up... Run it as root after upgrading . Ensure you complete the setup process first. I'd recommend R5A30.1.
#/usr/loca/bin/mythbackup /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend stop cd /myth/backup grep "INSERT INTO \`record\` " mythconverg.sql > restore.sql grep "INSERT INTO \`recorded\` " mythconverg.sql >> restore.sql grep "INSERT INTO \`oldrecorded\` " mythconverg.sql >> restore.sql grep "INSERT INTO \`recordedmarkup\` " mythconverg.sql >> restore.sql mysql -u root < /usr/local/share/knoppmyth/drop.sql mysql -u root < /usr/share/mythtv/sql/mc.sql /usr/bin/GlobalSQLTweaker.sh /usr/local/share/knoppmyth/KnoppMyth.sql /usr/local/bin/MythTV.sql /usr/local/share/knoppmyth/KnoppMyth.sql mysql -u mythtv -pmythtv mythconverg < /myth/backup/restore.sql /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend start |

Ok. I'll give it a shot over the weekend. |

So... Just to be sure I don't screw this up, I'd like to verify the steps I need to take. 1) From the MythTV menu, select KnoppMyth, then Backup. 2) Boot off of the KnoppMyth R5A30.1 CD. 3) Choose Auto-Upgrade 4) Boot from the hard drive, go through setup. 5) Run that script. 6) There is no step 6. Also... I modified the disk layout on my system. /cache is now /dev/hda4 and /myth is /dev/hdb1, but /etc/fstab reflects these changes. This shouldn't be a problem, right? Thanks in advance. |

It works for me. I didn't use that exact Mac app (downloaded an 0.18 version from somewhere else) but that shouldn't matter. |
