| I'm running mysql under Windows XP and Ubuntu with the same data (database and tables) on both OS's. I would like to have the data available to both systems, is this possible? Currently if I'm running Linux and make a change to the database, I dump the affected tables to a flash drive and restore same the next time I run Windows and vise-versa. I've tried centralizing the data directory on both versions only to discover that Mysql will not connect. I suspect that my problem is that the 'centralized' location is a NTFS formatted partion! Suggestions welcome and thanks in advance. Geo. W. |
