After upgrading the old database, do a full backup ( 
http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Database_Backup_and_Restore ), then drop the 
database, run mc.sql, then start mythtv-setup, and exit.  Then do a 
partial restore from the old database backup ( 
http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Database_Backup_and_Restore#Partial_restore_of_a_backup 
), then reconfigure things.  That way you'll save all the 
non-recreateable data.

Or you can do this approach with your 0.21-fixes DB backup:
