I've gotten Solr up and running, I can ingest the demo objects and
query them via the admin tool, so far so good.  Now, how do I ingest
some basic XML, how can I pull from an existing MySQL database, what
about pulling records in via OAI?  I'm assuming I need to write some
schemas for that, can someone point me to some documentation or
tutorial for that?

Thanks

my "Apache Solr: Out Of The Box" apachecon talk from this year covers 
(to various degrees) all of the features of Solr -- it can give you the 
vocabulary to search the wiki and mailing list archives for more 
details...

I guess you may have already gone through the Solr tutorial.

Also look at http://wiki.apache.org/solr/UpdateXmlMessages for general
description of add/delete commands
Look at the DataImportHandler which can help in indexing databases and your
custom XML -- http://wiki.apache.org/solr/DataImportHandler
