Niltze [Hello]- Using Reieser4 OS on root file system successfully installed as seen in Installation Reports log: [https://metztli.it/blog/index.php/amatl/reiser-nahui/successful-metztli-reiser4-sfrn-4](https://metztli.it/blog/index.php/amatl/reiser-nahui/successful-metztli-reiser4-sfrn-4) I have debian instances with lower kernel versions in the cloud with similar setup running MariaDB. Linux cipactli 4.14.0-3+reiser4.0.2-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.14.13-1+reiser4.0.2 (2018-01-15) x86\_64 GNU/Linux cat /etc/os\* PRETTY\_NAME=“Debian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch)” NAME=“Debian GNU/Linux” VERSION\_ID=“9” VERSION=“9 (stretch)” ID=debian HOME\_URL=“[https://www.debian.org/](https://www.debian.org/)” SUPPORT\_URL=“[Debian -- User Support](https://www.debian.org/support)” BUG\_REPORT\_URL=“[https://bugs.debian.org/](https://bugs.debian.org/)” I am just setting up a dedicated server for development. I have already installed from Debian repositories Apache2, PHP, etc. however, unable to install MariaDB 10.2 nor 10.3 I decided to try Percona especially since MariaDB server was unable to install and when forced, /var/log/syslog showed an error: Jan 14 06:25:39 cipactli mysqld\_safe[11677]: 2018-01-14 6:25:39 140633683097792 [ERROR] InnoDB: Header page consists of zero bytes in datafile: ./ibdata1, Space ID:0, Flags: 0.
