# Now that you have created your own config file you can call it with flag `--defaults-file` while installing the system tables. To install the system tables call following from the build folder:
./scripts/mariadb-install-db --srcdir=../server --defaults-file=~/mariadb.cnf

# Run the DB Server
sql/mariadbd --defaults-file=~/mariadb.cnf

# Run client command line
client/mariadb
