I have a Debian Linux server, and I would like to install MySQL on there. Potentially to use it in a Cluster configuration, but for now, just as a "play thing". However, I'm very "green" when it comes to Linux. I can get to a command prompt, and list files, but the extent of my Linux knowledge is not much more than that. I believe there is an old version of MySQL on there already (4.1 or something).

1) How do I remove the old version?

2) How to I install and start the latest version?

3) As mentioned, eventually, I would like to use this machine in a cluster configuration. Is it possible to use different operating systems in a cluster? Here is basically what I would have: 1. On one network located away from where I am (different location all-together), there would be a Windows Server 2003 Machine, and a Windows 2000 Server machine. 2. On my network, there would be located a Windows Server 2000 machine, and a Debian Linux machine.

Thanks,
Jesse
