Wiki page fix for upgrade
"The upgrade from previous versions should be transparent. Any changes to the database structure should be applied automatically."
This should be changed to say that it will be transparent if you run your DB on localhost with no authentication. Otherwise, you will need to look up the procedure for how to upgrade the DB by hand.
Thanks
Installing with MariaDB
in section 3.4.3, when executing 'apt-get build-dep mythtv', you may get an error about libmysqlclient-dev. To avoid this, I installed MariaDB's version of that lib: apt-get install libmariadbclient-dev

Order of Inputs
The order can be configured Cardinput_table#{sched,live}order. Cards do no longer be removed for reordering. This also renders the section Advanced Backend Configurations deprecated.
Advanced Partition Formatting
btrfs is missing either a recommendation or the opposite.
