Hello,

Some information that will be helpful:

1.  The UCSC Genome Browser software does not care which MySQL version is in use

2.  The only case where the MySQL version is important is if the user is trying
        to transfer our binary tables from:
        rsync://hgdownload.cse.ucsc.edu/mysql/

3.  MySQL 4 installations can not use the binary files from MySQL 5 
installations

4.  MySQL 5 installations *can* use MySQL 4 version binary files.  The tables
        should be converted in-place for optimal performance with the command:
        alter table "<table name>" ENGINE=MyISAM;

Any MySQL installation questions can be answered at http://dev.mysql.com/
The exact parameters will depend upon your system and how it is administered.

Thanks,
Jennifer
