  • Tried MythTV for a HTPC and had some issue with a log file filling up the the whole drive. Didn’t have the skill yet to fix the issue. Does messing around with the terminal in OS X count? It certainly made me more comfortable for the next time tried. I think the next major attempt was another HTPC, but this time, I just used Ubuntu + XBMC and setup it up to also be a headless torrent box. Using OS X as my main desktop still made things easier then it would have been going from Windows to Linux as the file naming and system directories were compatible.

    I’ve been using Mint as my laptop OS for a while now and just recently switched from Mac to Mint on my desktop machine. I made an effort to never get trapped in property file types or an “eco system”, so all the apps I was using were available in Linux already and the Majove Hackintosh was becoming less and less viable.
