Back up existing system
- Package up existing mythtv in case you need to revert back:
quickpkg media-tv/mythtv
- Back up database:
mysqldump -u mythtv -p mythtv mythconverg > mythconverg-`date +%F`.sql
You should backup the database RIGHT before stopping mythbackend. No harm in doing multiple backups, though
Build new system
- Download MythTV portage overlay file from http://xxx.teppic.homelinux.net/MythTV-0.20-Overlay.tar.bz2
- Extract into portage overlay
cp MythTV-0.20-Overlay.tar.bz2 /usr/local/portage cd /usr/local/portage tar -xjf MythTV-0.20-Overlay.tar.bz2
- Build the packages (but don't install yet):
emerge -B mythtv
