On a dual boot it should work okay. I've done a similar thing, by taking
the data folder from a Linux installation, copying it to a local windows
computer and using a local install (same version of course) to read it.
It worked fine. I would think the scenario is much the same as what

My dear friend,
I suppose that you already done:
./configure --prefix=PATH_OF_THE_MYSQL_APPLICATION
After compilation you must do:
make install
and after this :
cd /PATH_OF_THE_MYSQL_APPLICATION/bin
and...
./mysql_install_db.

What is the purpose of creating the symlink if I
manually edit the data directory variable? Would it be
better to:
a) Move the data, and edit the data directory to the
new location
b) Move the data, and create a symlink to the new data

Hi Mike,
Thanks for the bug report.
The explanation why the insert command doesn't works on Win32,

created in the create table command, like the Unix version does.

If you had read the installation instructions, you would have seen
statements that looked like this...
