If you can mount the Windows partitions under LINUX, you can copy file files from partition to partition. If that's not possible, you'll have to export the data under Windows to another location/media, then boot into LINUX and load the data into your LINUX database.
You can dump the databases from the Windows edition by using: Mysqldump --all-databases --add-drop-table -uuserid -ppassword > mydumpfilename.sql To reload you can then: Mysql -uusername -ppassword < mydumpfilename.sql -----Original Message----- From: Matt Fletcher [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, November 03, 2003 6:51 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Windows to Linux Hi there, I have taken the plunge and dropped windows in favour of linux. My question is what is the best way to get the data from my windows mysql databases into linux? Can I just copy some files from one partition to another or what?
