After a recent hard drive kerfluffle and the results of fsck, I'm left
with a slew of jumbled database files.  The file command can tell me
the file types, like so:

#15901614: MySQL table definition file Version 10
#15901615: MySQL MISAM compressed data file Version 1
#15901617: MySQL table definition file Version 10
#15901618: MySQL MISAM compressed data file Version 1
#15901620: MySQL table definition file Version 10
#15901621: MySQL MISAM compressed data file Version 1

These files are, I'm pretty sure, from my mythtv database.  I'm
rebuilding my box and it would be nice if I can keep the mythtv
database the same as before, but how can I tell which file is which?

Any ideas?

Thanks much.
