"tar.gz" packages are not specific to the Linux distribution, they are generic. Their sole dependency is on the glibc version, and that is 2.3 (or up) with all reasonably current Linuxes (kernel 2.4 and up). (With RPMs, it is different: They contain requirement specifications which list package and version, and so there are specific ones for current RHEL and SLES versions.) > > What is the URL / file name to download and untar please? It depends on your CPU: Go to "http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/5.1.html";, scroll down to the bottom of the list, you will find 5 "generic" tar.gz packages: x86, x86-icc, x86_64, x86_64-icc, ia64. Those which do not bear "icc" in the name were built using gcc, and if you are not specifically preferring binearies created by ICC you should take a gcc-built one. Pick the one that matches your CPU. HTH, Jörg -- Joerg Bruehe, MySQL Build Team, joerg.bru...@sun.com ORACLE Deutschland B.V. & Co.
