Hi Fletch I tried to tinker with the MySQL instance to get it to start using the Slimserver settings in /var/cache/slimserver/my.cnf. This didn't work and I reset the settings.
Then I ran apt-get --purge mysql* and slimserver, deleted the /etc/mysql/, /etc/slimserver and /var/cache/slimserver folders, ran apt-get update and apt-get install slimserver using the testing repository in the sources.list, but it didn-t work so I've reinstalled the image (see next post) Original MySQL: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# /etc/init.d/mysql status /usr/bin/mysqladmin Ver 8.41 Distrib 4.1.15, for pc-linux-gnu on x86_64 Copyright (C) 2000 MySQL AB & MySQL Finland AB & TCX DataKonsult AB This software comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY.
