What do you mean, "same commands??????
Do you mean I substitute "mardiadb" for "mysql" or not? Either way, it
didn't work for me. Perhaps because I had already installed and
uninstalled mysql. It looks like I'll have to reinstall Fedora.
And I take that by "equivalent for sql" you mean that I don't install
mysql, only maridb. Is that right?
Are there any plans to revise the Wiki
<http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Installing_MythTV_on_Fedora> to install
maridb instead of mysql?
