Yes, Red Hat does come with mysql. It will be on your CD's.

There will be a documentation rpm or look at the docs on mysql's website on how to configure/use mysql.

hi JimH ,
what Its name - i mean Mysql RPM-
first is it just one RPM or many ??? ??? ??? ???
can you Tell me where can i find it ;D ;D?
THANK YOU VERY VERY VERY VERY much ..

[JimH]

No there will be several Mysql RPM's. How many I don't know. I don't have the 7.2 CD's handy to look. More then likely they will not all be on the same CD. You are going to have to look and see which CD they are on.

They will have names like this....
mysql-<version>
mysql-devel-<version>
mysql-server-<version>

and so on...
