I am using the RPM's, but it didn't give an error so I'm assuming it is 
properly configured. The MySQL version is:

[ken@ken ken]$ mysql --version
mysql  Ver 11.15 Distrib 3.23.44, for pc-linux-gnu (i686)

Sorry -- I should have included that.

I'm assuming there's something wrong with my syntax as I can't create Berkley 
tables either. Frankly I don't care what table type I use, I just want 
transactions -- and if I can get them, foreign keys w/ cascade deletes, etc...
