IIRC InnoDB is a file format supported by MySQL providing better transaction
support and some referential constraints not provided by the default
(C-ISAM). Are you starting from the point of wanting to migrate/build a
system on InnoDB? Or have existing InnoDB files you want to read?

Assuming the former - if your currrent MySQL does not support them then
upgrade - MySQL provide binary downloads so you won't even have to
recompile. (Indeed - a quick shufty at the MySQL site shows that rpms are
avialable).
