When creating a new installation of 7.x dev I am prompted on the Database configuration only one database option. That is SQLLite, I'm looking for MySQL

Given my current environment current supports MySQL applications I'd like to know how the detection process works, and also then how to extend for Drizzle.

Basic options

To set up your Drupal database, enter the following information.
Database type: *
SQLite
The type of database your Drupal data will be stored in. Your PHP configuration only supports the SQLite database type so it has been automatically selected.

You need to install the pdo_mysql module. It seems that currently only pdo_sqlite is enabled.

Drizzle has no PHP bindings yet that I know of, certainly not for PDO. Once it has a PDO driver (which could take a week or a year, depending on who feels like working on it over in the PHP dev team), it shouldn't be too hard to support provided they don't rip out too many MySQL features along the way.
