Hi, I'm trying to use the available MySQL Linux Alpha binary distribution on this AlphaServer:
Linux jive.shadowtrance.com 2.4.9-12smp #1 SMP Tue Oct 30 17:54:45 EST 2001 alpha unknown Running RedHat 7.1 Alpha Deluxe, Using MySQL 3.23.46 from: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/mysql/mysql-3.23.46-unknown-linux-gnu-alp haev6.tar.gz [root@jive mysql]# ./scripts/mysql_install_db Preparing db table Preparing host table Preparing user table Preparing func table Preparing tables_priv table Preparing columns_priv table Installing all prepared tables ./scripts/mysql_install_db: line 1: 1008 Illegal instruction (core dumped) ./bin/mysqld --bootstrap --skip-grant-tables --basedir=. --datadir=./data -- skip-innodb --skip-gemini --skip-bdb Installation of grant tables failed!

You would think that a 5/533 dual processor alpha box with 3 GB memory would beat out a 500 MHz dual processor intel box with 512 MB any day of the week no matter what compile flags you used ;). Any and all suggestions are welcome. Thanks in advance!
