Attaching an existing database
Posted by: David Anderson

Hi,

I would like to attach an existing database (I have the files from another system) to MySQL running on a recovery machine - yeah, the Linux system got screwed, but I managed to recover the files.

So, having the database files (.myi, .myd and .frm), how do I go about incorporating them into the current system? (Like "attach database" in MSSQL)

Any help in this area would be greatly appreciated.

Regards
David
