I just converted (reinstalled) a FreeBSD system from i386 to amd64. Of

use them :|
My question: I was s/rushing/stupid so I just moved /var/mysql to a
partition (i386) and reinstalled. Can I just copy this back or does some
magic need to happen first?
If you're talking about the data, I wouldn't expect this change to cause
issues, unless perhaps you're also updating to a different version of
MySQL. That could be a problem, depending on how different the old and
new versions are. Consult the upgrading section of the manual to see.
