it is asking me for a database so I figure mysql but it isn't installed. No problem.... I'll apt-get it. Apt-get install mysql gives a lot of download candidates though. Which should I install? I'm thinking mysql-server but there is also ...server-5.5 and ...server-core-5.5. Here are the candidates: $ sudo apt-get install mysql mysql-client mysql-mmm-tools mysql-testsuite mysql-client-5.5 mysql-proxy mysql-testsuite-5.5 mysql-client-core-5.5 mysql-server mysqltuner mysql-common mysql-server-5.5 mysql-utilities mysql-mmm-agent mysql-server-core-5.5 mysql-workbench mysql-mmm-common mysql-source-5.5 mysql-workbench-data mysql-mmm-monitor mysqltcl :-)~MIKE~(-: On Fri, Feb 1, 2013 at 1:07 PM, Michael Havens wrote: > thanks, Brian:) > :-)~MIKE~(-: > > > On Fri, Feb 1, 2013 at 12:53 PM, Brian Cluff wrote: > >> On 02/01/2013 12:48 PM, Michael Havens wrote: >> >>> I'm at pre instalation checklist now.
