hello list!
i'll be moving from a RedHat server to a Debian server very soon. despite the
different linux distributions, is it ok to transfer my entire mysql database by just
copying everything in /var/lib/mysql of the RedHat system to the Debian system? has
anyone tried this before?
the reason why i don't want to do the database transfer using data generated by
mysqldump is because i want all the auto-generated record_ids to stay the same in the
new system.
any help will be greatly appreciated.
thanks!
shannon
