In WindowsXP my dbases are located under D:\MySql\bin\, in Suse they're in /var/lib/mysql As I managed to do with Apache (they both use a FAT32 partition in /windows/win_G/www), I wonder if I could configure mysql so that windows and linux use the same databases. In windows I placed my configuration file under C:/windows/ as I read in the installation instructions. Where is this file located on my Suse box? (SuSE9.0 mysql-rpm-installation), and can I instruct both mysql servers to use the same data folder? Thx a lot in advance!
