What is the best procedure to move MySQL data from one disk to another?

I have a server that I want to run purely for the database, now the mysql is installed on one hard drive, I want to move it to another hard drive and still be compatible with webmin, how would i go about doing this?

  • Jim:

    1. Take a backup
    2. delete the current database.
    3. allocate a new database.
    4. restore the backup from 1.

    enjoy
