starting up mysql on bootup

Hi again

I'm sure this is a easy thing to do, but I cant find the instructions anywhere.

Could someone please tell me how to set up MySql so it starts up automatically when you boot up Linux? I know it can be done, just don't know how

Thanks a lot

Go to the mysql directory. In directory support-files you can find file "mysql.server". This file copy (as root) to the /etc/init.d/ directory.
Then create symlink to the mysql.server in /etc/rc3.d or in /etc/rc5.d (it depend on your runlevel).
Thats all...
