you are probably aware of the pre-built packages by Axel Thimms for FC-3
and it is been reported as one of the best and easiest to install and
setup.
enable ATRPMS repository and a simply yum install mythtv-suite
http://atrpms.net/dist/common/mythtv-suite/
I don't see it packaged for RHEL 4 though, RHEL 3 and obviously Fedora
Jarod Wilson's guide is also linked on that page - a very good resource.
