CREATE INDEX on a large table is not a quick operation. How large is your table? How long creation continued before you terminated it? What is the type of the table? DC> I have tried mysqlcheck but it seems to be taking a very long time too. You terminated myisamchk, too? What do you mean "inaccessible"? Do you get any error?
