Hi,
Execute
mysqldump -u root -p<root password> --all-databases >> WHOLE_DATABASE_DUMP.DMP


Once you reinstall mysql, delete all databases from mysql and then run
cat WHOLE_DATABASE_DUMP.DMP | mysql -u root -p<root password>

This is a tested method.

Hi,

I want to remove my mysql installation and re-install from scratch. Now the
problem. I have 6 active databases. How can i make sure that i dont loose
those. And that when i have re-installed, that they work immediatilly ??

I know this is a stupid question but i dont know this sort of thing.

Anyone maybee have a link to a tutorial or something.

Thanks alot.

Ian
