Installing MySQL On Linux
- The recommended way to install MySQL on Linux is by using the RPM packages.
- This binary installation is the easiest and cleanest way.
- RPM distributions of MySQL often are provided by other vendors.
- They may differ in features and capabilities from those built by MySQL AB.
- To get a functional MySQL installation, install only the
MySQL-server and MySQL-client packages.
- Other packages are not required for a standard installation.
