This section covers the installation of MySQL on platforms where we offer packages using the native packaging format of the respective platform. (This is also known as performing a "binary install.") However, binary distributions of MySQL are available for many other platforms as well. See 2.2.6 Installing MySQL on Other Unix-like Systems for generic installation instructions for these packages that apply to all platforms.
See 2.1 General Installation Issues for more information on what other binary distributions are available and how to obtain them.
