Can you restore from a backup of the mysql data directory or do you need to
dump the database in order to be able to restore? I have seen some traffic
on the list that suggests that a dump is the way to go. I backup the data
directory each night, but I would hate to find out that that is not the way
to go if/when things go bad.
