Yeah, that didn't help and I spelled "skip-innodb" correctly the first time,
moved it into the 'mysqld' section and it didn't change a thing. Same thing
happens still.
As for your statement about reading the manual, I don't think that
installing default should take reading a 615 page manual. I think that it
should be as simple as install, use. I know it was that easy when
installing on NT/2k/XP, but those operating systems don't server the purpose
that I have for this, as they don't handle clustering anywhere near as well
as Linux does. I've read both the directions in the manual and in my "MySQL
& mSQL" book for installation. Neither manual seems to cover what I need to
do to get MySQL running properly. I'm going to try installing RedHat fresh
again, this time without any database software and installing by rpm again.
