Hi, Here is a newbie on both Fedora Core and MySQL. I have my database corrupted and so data in one table is currently not playable. But fortunately I have the <tableName>.{MYI|MYD|frm} file saved accidently two days ago. should I just stop mysql and overwrite related files? or I have to play log files? My Mysql is 5.0.18 directly downloaded from mysql.com. Thanks a lot. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Need Mail bonding? Go to the Yahoo!
