Install MySQL Server 4.1 on Ubuntu
Installing MySQL 4.1 Server on Ubuntu is a quick and easy process. It almost feels like it should be more difficult.
Open a terminal window, and use the following command:
sudo apt-get install mysql-server-4.1
If you are running PHP you will also need to install the php module for mysql 4:
sudo apt-get install php4-mysql
To create a new database, use the mysqladmin command:
mysqladmin create <databasename>
See, really easy!

Hi!
How can I install MySQL 4.1 on Ubuntu Server 8.04? When this is not possible, what is the newest Ubuntu Server Version that supports MySQL 4.1?
Thanks and Greets
