-This ALPHA build of MySQL 4.1 for the Windows platform does not come
-with an installer. A full-featured installer is being developed for the
-4.1 series, and it is scheduled to be released with MySQL 4.1 BETA.
-
-** FRESH INSTALL **
-
-To install MySQL 4.1 as a 'fresh' install, unzip this archive to a directory
-of your choice (we suggest 'c:\', which will cause MySQL to be installed in
-a directory named 'mysql' in 'c:\'). You should then follow the directions
-in the user manual for starting/stopping MySQL:
-
-(Windows 9x/ME) http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Win95_start.html
-(Windows NT/2000/XP) http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/NT_start.html
-
-** UPGRADE INSTALL **
-
-To install MySQL 4.1 as an upgrade to your current version of MySQL, you need
-to perform the following steps:
-
-* Back up your original installation (always a good idea!)
-
-* Unzip the 4.1 archive to a directory that is different than where your
- current MySQL installation is located. (Or, if you do unzip this
- archive into the same location as your existing installation, do NOT
- unpack the 'data' subdirectory. If you unpack the 'data' directory,
- your existing databases will be overwritten.)
-
-* Shut down all MySQL server processes/services.
-
-* Remove the Win32 MySQL service (if appropriate for your OS):
-
- c:\mysql\bin\mysqld-nt --remove
-
-* Exit 'WinMySQLAdmin' (if it is running).
-
-* If you unzipped this archive into a directory different than that
- of your existing MySQL installation, copy from the archive all its
- directories and their contents EXCEPT the 'data' directory into the
- existing installation.
-
-* Start the MySQL server with the '--skip-grant-tables' option. Assuming
- your MySQL installation is located at 'c:\mysql', the command looks like
- this:
-
- c:\mysql\bin\mysqld-opt --skip-grant-tables
-
- If your installation is located in some other directory, adjust the
- pathname in that command (and in the following commands).
-
-* Execute the 'mysql_fix_privilege_tables.sql' script that is located in
- the 'scripts' directory:
-
- c:\mysql\bin\mysql -f mysql < c:\mysql\scripts\mysql_fix_privilege_tables.sql
-
- This script performs any actions necessary to convert your grant tables
- to the current format. You may see some "duplicate column" warnings as
- it runs; these can be ignored.
-
-* Stop the server:
-
- c:\mysql\bin\mysqladmin -u root shutdown
-
-* Re-install the Win32 MySQL service (if required):
-
- c:\mysql\bin\mysqld-nt --install
-
-* Re-start the server or service using your normal startup procedure.
-
-** Further Questions **
-
-You can find further information about running MySQL on Windows in the
-manual that ships in the 'Doc' subdirectory, or online at the MySQL AB
-web site:
