Help recovering db

[Kevin Carlson]

Using a backup I recreated the /var/lib/mysql directory and when I 
restart mysqld I am getting the following error:

InnoDB: Error: log file /var/lib/mysql/ib_logfile0 is of a different 
size 0 5238827 byes
InnoDB: than specified in the .cnf file 0 5242880

Of course, the database never starts because of this.  Oddly, if I move 
the backup to another machine that is running the same version of MySQL 
(same OS and version), the database starts correctly.

I have tried running mysqld with and without a my.cnf file present and 
have changed some of the values regarding the logfile size but have not 
been able to successfully start the database.  Is anyone aware of any 
workaround for this?

Thanks,

Kevin
