Compiling mythtv
At the time of writing the current (14660) revision of mythtv does not build for Mac OS X. One working build is 14225. To build this:
NB. Ensure you don't have xmms or xmms-shlibs installed via fink/apt-get
- svn co -r 14225 http://svn.mythtv.org/svn/trunk/mythtv/contrib/OSX mythtv-14225
- cd mythtv-14225
- ./osx-packager.pl -svnrev 14225
Alternatively, to fix the latest version for an Intel Mac:
- svn co http://svn.mythtv.org/svn/trunk/mythtv/contrib/OSX mythtv
- cd mythtv
- Add "'--arch=pentium4'," to the mythtv args list around line 488 of osx-packager.pl
- ./osx-packager.pl
- You'll get an "ERROR: CPU specific ./configure options failed compile test" warning when osx-packager runs configure for mythtv, but this can be ignored
Setting the domain name
This only seems to work until the next DHCP refresh. Better to set this at the DHCP server so that it hands out the domain with a DHCP request.
sudo hostname -s host.domain.com
Backup with timemachine to Ubuntu
See: http://www.mike-hughes.net/it/mac/filesharing-for-osx-afp-on-debian/ and for the Ubuntu specific stuff (just the apt-get, since the rest looks incorrect): http://notepad.bobkmertz.com/2010/01/apple-time-machine-backups-to-ubuntu.html
Installing from the command line
- hdiutil attach file.dmg
- cd /Volumes/mount/
- sudo installer -pkg install.pkg -target "/"
