"chkconfig mysql on" (or just use ntsyv) to turn in on at boot time,
as any other service. "service mysql start" to start it immediately.
There's nothing special about it.


That said, I'd heartily recommend using PostgreSQL instead of MySQL -
it has the things MySQL lacks, like subselects, triggers, foreign
keys, stored procedures, no need to use specific table types to get
transactions etc.
