[rt-users] Mysql question

[chaim.rieger at gmail.com]

Does anyone know of a tool (ideally Linux command line, and ideally  
ideally with source or PowerPC binary package(s) available) that grab  
a partial snapshot of a MySQL database?  Trying to setup a development  
server that obviously can't hit the 'live' database, but don't want  
to, even periodically, replicate a 60+ GB database if I don't have to,  
especially when I only really need a few hundred rows from each table  
to do what I need to do.

If a tool exists that can retain and, follow  
referential relationships (e.g., grab the first XXX rows from this  
table, and all the HAS_A and HAS_MANY rows linked to those XXX  
rows) ... ?
