Hi Ciro,

You can download MySQL for SLES9 on mysql.com.

http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/5.0.html#linux-sles9-x86-64bit-rpms

Be sure you read through "Upgrading from MySQL 4.1 to 5.0" before
upgrading.

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/upgrading-from-4-1.html

To check if everything will work after a upgrade to MySQL 5, stop mysql,
copy /var/lib/mysql to another machine, start MySQL on both machines.
Make sure your permissions on the files you copy is the same, it will
fail if not. And do some tests against the copy.
