I'm a Grass newbie and I'm wondering which database system is the best suited
system to work with Grass? (I'm reinstalling Linux, Grass5.0b etc. on my P133 pc
!!!!!)
Former (before grass) I used MSql as my database system, but after reading
Grass manual it seems that Grass doesn't support this system.??
Thanks, Kjell-Olav Bjerknes

If everything works well I will use Grass in my research and not the schools ArcInfo!

I won't touch the "best suited" aspect.
However, postgres has native spatial data types and integrates tightly and
easily with GRASS. It's what we'll be using.

What would be involved in getting MySQL to work? Any ideas? While it's
more commercial (license-wise) than Postgres it's also really really fast.
