What's happening is that the "Upgrade" the live CD offers doesn't maintain the MySQL database or the recordings that are stored in the default /var/lib/mysql and /var/lib/mythtv.
I believe this is happening in partman-target (finish.d/clear_partitions). I'm not sure if there is any room to add special cases though. ** Also affects: partman-target (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: partman-target (Ubuntu Precise) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/992241 Title: Upgrading using the live cd wipes /var/lib/mythtv/* To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mythbuntu/+bug/992241/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
