What do you mean with 'unpack' the DB?
You need to import the sql dump into the mysql server of the second laptop.
I hope you weren't simply moving over the MediaWiki php files... It's the
mysql db what changes.
Aeh well by unpack I mean tar xfvz wikidb.tgz in the
/var/lib/mysql dir.
As I understand from you message this was the wrong thing to do.
Do you know by heart the relevant mysql command.
Thanks
