MySQL system requirements
All, I have searched the online manual in vain for mySQL system requirements. Can anyone give me the precise URL? Is there one? I want to play around with converting an existing FoxPro data base (about 65mb in all tables, 55mb in the largest table) to mySQL. And learning PHP from square 1, and learning more about Linux, where I know only a little. The machine that is available without additional cost is a dual Pentium classic 166 with 128mb memory, 1.2G hard drive. Memory slots are fully stuffed. I could add another hard drive that's on the shelf. Will that setup be adequate for a single-user learning experience, or will I need to start with a new machine?

RE: MySQL system requirements
The machine that is available without additional cost is a dual Pentium classic 166 with 128mb memory, 1.2G hard drive. For a single user system for learning this will be MORE than enough. More disk space is nice to install more optional packags in addition to the MySQL-- that way you will have a lot of other cool Linux tools to learn and play with, but you can easily get going with this. c -- Chris Lott http://www.chrislott.org/ - Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] Trouble unsubscribing?
