I have been a huge fan of https://www.turnkeylinux.org/tracks for quite a while. i am trying to setup a new instance using version18.0 of the ISO. i am having issues with MariaDB. it seems it will only run one time, and as soon as you either reboot the appliance, or restart MariaDB it will no longer start.

I have followed this thread extensively, and unfortunately i am still having the issue: https://www.turnkeylinux.org/forum/support/tue-20240430-1614/cant-get-re...

When i try and restart MariaDB, i get the error below, it seems the issue is with innodb, everything i have found suggests deleting some log files which do not exist for me. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
