wget fails. Will work with:-

wget -O mysql-5.6.8-rc-linux2.6-x86_64.tar.gz http://downloads.skysql.com/archives/mysql-5.6/mysql-5.6.8-rc-linux2.6-x86_64.tar.gz

Thanx for the link!

Do you know if rc-linux is the only version we can install? I see the versions keep upgrading to .13 till now, but rc-linux not!

Thank you for these great instructions of how to install mysql5.6 on a CLEAN system.

All other instructions found on the entire Internet are inadequate because they want you to install 5.5 first and then overlay 5.6, which results in a very messy and potentially buggy and unsecure install.

the line "scripts/mysql_install_db --user=mysql" ain't working .
