I hate when I shoot myself in the foot. I had been playing around with some of the setting in my.cnf to eek out some extra performance out of mysql, but had just upgraded myth to 0.17. In the flurry of activity, I had never restarted mysql, thinking I'd get around to it. When the machine crashed last night, I took the opportunity to add a drive to my LVM array, and restarted. I thought adding the drive might have had something to do with it, but it was a red herring. Then again, I broke that rule to not add more than one piece at a time because of troubleshooting - I'd never know what the real problem was. I forgot the most basic item - check the logs. I had mistyped one of the setting in my.cnf, preventing mysql from starting. Retyped it the right way and BAM! - mysql started right up. I hate when that happens... Thanks for all the help, Paul
