title: innodb_file_per_table doesn't work
body: <p>I am trying to use the <code>innodb_file_per_table</code> option of my mysql 5.0.</p>
  
  <p>my relevant my.cnf is:</p>
  
  <pre><code>innodb_data_file_path           = ibdata1:100M:autoextend  
  innodb_file_per_table 
  innodb_autoextend_increment = 100
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but when i drop &amp; recreate my schema &amp; DB, i see the split files for tables, but they are too small! (they dont start from 100MB)</p>
  
  <p>what can be the problem?</p>
  
  <p>thanks!</p>
