          MariaDB use systemd as does MySQL. To disable MySQL or MariaDB, from starting on bootup, run



          systemctl list-unit-files '*mariadb*' '*mysql*'


          If you see mysql.service, try disabling that one first.



          sudo systemctl disable mysql


          Now you can start and stop MySQL with



          sudo systemctl stop mysql.service
          sudo systemctl start mysql.service

          • You can always compile it from source and script the startup/shutdown. I like the fine-grained control this gives. I needed it for College where the only way I could run MySQL was to compile it and run it myself (no superuser privileges for me :-) )
