> mysql daemon will not start Piece o' cake man... I've copied many a binary .ISM file between systems and never had a problem- I just recently copied quite a lot of data from a redhat box to FreeBSD without any glitches simply by scp'ing the whole mysql datadir. I doubt Debian does anything too terribly different. MySQL has its own data file format(s) so there's not a lot to worry about except in HUGE version jumps. MySQL is *very* good about remaining backward compatible, and allowing for easy "upconvert" of data. The only trouble I've had has been moving database files from FreeBSD to a Mac OS-X, and I suspect that's more an Endian-ness issue. -=Jim=-
