How to Install PHP5 and phpmyadmin joomla(arm) duo v2

Hi charliwest,
Thanks for the tip.
I went ahead with the 'apt-get install -f' command, and after it had completed I then ran the main 'apt-get install' command with all the php packages again, and I now have php installed and working.
phpmyadmin also works, although I have noticed that when I try to start mysql, I get the following errors:

root@ReadyNAS:~# /etc/init.d/mysql status
MySQL is stopped..
root@ReadyNAS:~#
root@ReadyNAS:~#
root@ReadyNAS:~#
root@ReadyNAS:~# /etc/init.d/mysql start
Starting MySQL database server: mysqld ..
Checking for corrupt, not cleanly closed and upgrade needing tables..
root@ReadyNAS:~# Could not open required defaults file: /etc/mysql/debian.cnf
Fatal error in defaults handling. Program aborted
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
^C
root@ReadyNAS:~#

After this though, it is working and I can connect to mysql, both via command line and phpmyadmin and access the databases (created new user and test database for web development testing)

root@ReadyNAS:/etc/mysql#
root@ReadyNAS:/etc/mysql# ps -ef | grep mysql
root      3864     1  0 10:24 pts/0    00:00:00 /bin/sh /usr/bin/mysqld_safe
admin     3979  3864  0 10:24 pts/0    00:00:00 /usr/sbin/mysqld --basedir=/usr --datadir=/var/lib/mysql --user=admin --pid-file=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid --socket=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock --port=3306
root      3980  3864  0 10:24 pts/0    00:00:00 logger -t mysqld -p daemon.error
root      4261  3573  0 10:51 pts/0    00:00:00 grep mysql
root@ReadyNAS:/etc/mysql#

Is there a way to remove the startup errors, and also have mysql start automatically on ReadyNAS startup?

thanks
