Bare minimum install?

What is the bare minimum that should be installed to make MythTv work? Is
there plans for a complete distro? Like demolinux, or some such?

Just curious...because I think a bootable CD with all of this mostly
pre-configured would _rock_.

I would be happy to do this...I mean make a whole distro..and put it on a bootable cd...

-BUT-

(you knew there was going to be a but)

I would like to see some more of the features be included (I am working on including mulitple inputs (direct tv and analog cable)...I think once I finish this, I will offer that contribution to Isaac. Someone else might feel differently and make one up sooner.

my two cents, but Isaac is the creator of the project,

Heh, never really thought about that. There _is_ quite a bit of stuff to
setup, though, so I'd think it'd be non-trivial. Something to think about
for the future, I suppose.

Let's see: X, v4l, audio, qt3, xmltv, lame, mysql, perl, vorbis, flac, mad,
libcdaudio, cdparanoia... might be more, I dunno.
