The mapping is actually determined by your EF provider, although you can override it by modifying the EDMX directly (either through the designer or the XML). 
 
If you're using DevArt's MySQL provider, here's the default mappings:  http://www.devart.com/dotconnect/mysql/docs/DataTypeMapping.html

I have a MySQL database with a bit field to hold a boolean value.  In SqlServer, these normally come through on the Entity as boolean values.  With MySQL, it comes through as an SByte.
 
I know I can use value converters to convert it to a bool, but is there a better way to do this so it's a bool on the Entity?
