I've got a dual-boot computer running RedHat 9 and WindowsMe. Because
I'm exploring different frontends for my MySQL database, I never know
which OS is going to be up, so I was hoping to share the data between
operating systems. I set them to point to the same directory (on the
Windows partition, since Windows can't read ext2 files). This actually
allowed MySQL on Linux to recognize the table names, but not the columns
or data. I then realized that the Windows version of MySQL was set up
for InnoDB, while the Linux version was not, so that explains part of
the problem.
The question is, is that all of the problem? If I re-install MySQL on
Linux with InnoDB, will it be able to share the data with the Windows
partition? Or am I wasting my time trying to arrange this? Thanks in
advance for the help.
