Re: [Devil-Linux-discuss] Problem With MySQL

[Dominic R. <dl...@ed...>]

Hi Chris

Run setup, choose Other / MySQL, put in settings like:

--user=mysql --pid-file=/var/run/mysql.pid --datadir=/home/mysql

as you see, this specifies a datadir which is in /home, which is (for 
me, and probably for you) a permanent (hard disk) location.

Do:

save-config -q
/etc/init.d/mysqld restart
