[cobalt-users] move mysql from /var dir



Hi,
I have MySQL3.23.47 running on a Cobalt RaQ4 System.  The mysql
installed datadir turned out to be /var/lib/mysql. /var directory has
it?s own partition (/dev/hda3) and total space available is 194MB. As My

databases are growing and I?m out of space now on the /var directory.

I am thinking I need to change the datadir variable to somewhere on the
/home directory, where I have > 25GB free. How can I achieve this?  Or
is this the right approach?  Please provide some solution as details as
possible, as I?m new into this stuff.
Thanks so much.

Rahad
