Hello, A new question has been asked in "General FAQ" by juanito1969: -------------------------------- Hello there. Greetings from México. I hope you can help me with the next case: I am using a knoppix's live-dvd. My pc has an independent logical-partition used for programs and data storage. I download and unzip and decompress the tarball and put it into the "storage partition". But I don't know how to startup and use MariaDB from the live-dvd and the info. "prepared" in the logical-partition. What do I need to do for use MariaDb that way? Thank you in advance for your help Juan Antonio Vargas. -------------------------------- To view or answer this question please visit: http://mariadb.com/kb/en/can-i-run-mariadb-from-a-live-dvd/
