I was considering using Debian (or Ubuntu) for my new Myth box, but then

Does this mean that I'm SOL for Myth on a Debian distribution? Would it
be much more difficult to use the source straight from the MythTv.org
site? All of the guides I've found for Myth/Debian use the above
distribution.
Thanks for the advice.

Build from source. its easy once you have the required deb's installed. I've
got Myth running on all three of my Debian systems.
I'd also suggest against Ubuntu, stick with real Debian. Kanotix is a good
Live! distro that can be easily HD installed, or KnopMyth is good as well and
has a great forum for support and is specific for running MythTV.
Why do you recommend agains Ubuntu? I was actually going to attempt it
tonight...now I'm concerned!
Another factor to throw into the mix, my system has an AMD64. Does that
change things if I want to run an AMD64 distribution?
