I downloaded the rpm packages

If you're trying to run multiple versions of MySQL for pre-migration
testing (or whatever), *don't use rpms* -- get the tar file of the
binary, and just untar it as /usr/local/mysql-4.1.12 or whatever.
It will be *so* much simpler to switch between the old and new, or
run them simultaneously as needed.
FWIW!
Thanks a lot.
Now I have 2 folders with 4.0 and 4.1 distribution. (/usr/local/mysql40,
/usr/local/mysql41)
They said to upgrade from 3.23 to 4.0 and then from 4.0 to 4.1

grant tables:
what about 'Else' ?

Finally I did start the server and mysql 4.0 with my database.
I did this by running my script mount-mysql
[EMAIL PROTECTED] mircea]# ./mount-mysql
[EMAIL PROTECTED] mircea]# Starting mysqld daemon with databases from
/var/lib/mysql
mount-mysql:
mount --bind /mnt/120GB/mysql5 /var/lib/mysql
cd /usr/local/mysql40 ; /usr/local/mysql40/bin/safe_mysqld &
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ /usr/local/mysql40/bin/mysql -u mircea -psome_pass
-S/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 3 to server version: 4.0.24-standard
Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.

Now, as I am yang in Linux, wish to understand what it is all about in:
mysql_install_db
mysql.server
mysql_setpermission
mysqld_safe safe_mysqld
mysqlaccess
mysqlbug
I have to read about bash suppose.
Thank you Hassan, Kishore, Gleb, and others for your help!
