[mythtv-users] Can't install mythtv-suite on Redhat 9

Could the problem be MySQL? I have it installed, but I do not know how
to set it up and haven't found any instructions. I installed it using
apt.

After installing mythtv-backend it says to use the mc.sql file. Well,
there's no database, so of course that fails. 

I don't know much about MySQL, can someone give me some steps to follow
on getting the database setup correctly?

Thanks,
James
