root and old images
Hi,

I just installed MediaWiki from cvs relatively painlessly, upgrading from
1.2.5 and following Brion's suggested path.

I ran into a couple of minor issues, which should at least be noted in
INSTALL.

First, the username that I use to access mysql is not root, so I had to
change index.php manually to fix that.

Second, I had to do a manual copy of the uploaded files from my previous
installation into /phase3/images.

That's it!

Thanks a lot for developing this software.

Hiya,

I am having trouble fixing the script to use given User/Pass instead of
attempting to use root and failing. Could you tell me how you did it?
