My installation procedure no longer works. mysql can't find a host.frm
file so can't start up. I figure to be running all of this on a localhost
without network interaction and the program is still looking for
mysql.sock even though I told it to skip networking in the my.cnf file.
I understand getting mysql to start up and get running gets even harder in
slackware 12.1 if the changelogs are to be believed. Has anyone got
around these obstacles and can share the missing installation steps?
