Post subject: | R5B7 errors |
I've been trying unsuccesfully for the past couple months trying to get MythTV up and running without success. I was pretty close to getting R5A30.2 up and running, but could not get the perl script for my d10-100 directv box working. This is the script: http://www.pdp8.net/directv/directv.shtml The script would change the channel on the satellite box to the last channel viewed when I booted it up, but it would not change the channel after that using the remote. Lirc issue? I tried using the wilsonet setup using RedHat, and had the script working perfectly, however the how-to is out of date, and I could not get the capture card to record sound. Apparently there have been some changes in the kernel that hasn't yet been documented in the how-to. Since I wasn't that keen on RedHat anyway, I went and tried Knoppmyth again, this time using R5B7. On booting the cd, I get the following errors (this is fairly close, the text flew by before I could write it all down): /etc/rcS.d/S00 knoppix-autoconfig line 856 /usr/sbin/mkxf86config Input-output error /etc/rcS.d/S00 knoppix-autoconfig line 875 /etc/init.d/alsa-autoconfig Input-output error unable to start automount Input-output error The install would then crash during the config. System is as follows: Asus A7N8X-E / AMD Sempron 2500 w/ RealTek AC97 onboard sound 512MB Kingston RAM Hauppage PVR-250 w/ silver A415 remote GeForce FX 5200 Sony DRU-500A DVD-RW WD-2000 SATA drive System was purchased in January of '05, and I have only begun to play with it this year due to other obligations taking precedence. I saw mention here - http://mysettopbox.tv/phpBB2/viewtopic. ... ght=a7n8xe of a bios upgrade, which I have not done yet. I could find no other mention of this issue except this post, and it seems to be concerned with sound issues, which I did not have with R5A30.2, just the silly perl script. Any help would be greatly appreciated. |

If you get errors when initially booting the CD, the issue maybe: 1) Bad burn. 2) Bad media (incompatiable w/ drive). Try burning at a lower speed. Ensure you've verified the MD5Sum. |

And don't forget to boot with the "testcd" option to make sure it's OK! |

I thought SATA wasn't really supported yet? IE it takes a little effort to get a SATA install working. You may want to try it w/an IDE disk if you have one around. |

SATA is support, however some chipsets may not work. This is due to suport in the kernel. |

I've used this on every KnoppMyth cd I've burned in the last several months... |
