在my.ini(linux下/etc/my.cnf)加上skip-innodb，就可以了。
我这样设置后，在linux下都没问题，今天在我本机winXP启动MYSQL，提示启动不起来。看下mysql目录的错误日志：

090613 10:15:27 [ERROR] Default storage engine (InnoDB) is not available
090613 10:15:27 [ERROR] Aborting
090613 10:15:27 [Note] C:/www/mysql/bin/mysqld-nt: Shutdown complete
估计是上次加了参数后，一直没启动起来。。。已经很久没用本机的mysql了。
查了下，原来my.ini里有一句：default-storage-engine=INNODB，把默认的engine设为INNODB，而我又加了skip-innodb，怪不得启不来了。
将default-storage-engine改为MYISAM，MYSQL启动OK！
在skip-innodb下，data目录下的ibdata1,ib_logfile0,ib_logfile1这三个文件就不需要了，就可以删除。
测试了下，在没加skip-innodb时，删除了这三个文件，启动时会自动创建这三个文件，日志如下：

再删除这三个文件，加了skip-innodb后，启动日志：

那三个文件就不会自动产生了。bitsCN.com
