Hi,

        This may be a stupid question but can I still just ask it?

        Why do you want to disable the use of InnoDB tables? If you don't
use it, couldn't the files still be there? It's not like it's a security
risk (or is it?) or that it takes up lots of space? (maybe this is true as
well?)

        I'm just starting out and my innoDB files are small.

Cheers,
