Hi all,

I am new to Linux and installing programs. I have a remote server, FreeBSD, 
with MySQL 3.23.46 and need to upgrade to 4.1.X. I did the following:

# mkdir /usr/local/mysql/data
# mkdir /usr/local/mysql/tmp
# mkdir /usr/local/mysql/var
# cd /usr/src
# tar -vzxf mysql-standard-4.1.1-alpha-pc-linux-i686.tar.gz
#cd /usr/src/mysql-standard-4.1.1-alpha-pc-linux-i686.tar.gz
# ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql 
--localstatedir=/usr/local/mysql/data 
--with-unix-socket-path=/usr/local/mysql/tmp/mysql.socket

That worked fine. The make mysql-standard-4.1.1-alpha-pc-linux-i686.tar.gz 
says that it is "up to date".

But I am a lose to know what to do next.

What do I do next? I would even be willing to call someone - in the USA - 
and talk. I will be out until 3:30 EDT.

TIA

Ken
