Again, I apologize. Redhat 7.1 kernel 2.4.17

That was infact the problem. It's funny, I remember now doing that for
a previous mysql installation but didn't remember to do it this time.
Thank you very much!

It's actually a legacy habit from an old job. We had a "Server
Standards" document which defined installation methods for all servers.
Unix boxen followed a convention where any customer facing service would
be in a separate root directory/sub directory heierarchy.
Basically /serices/<type>/
/<service>
/lib
/include
/conf
/content
/var
Ie:
/services/mail/exim/bin
/services/mail/conf/exim.conf
/services/mail/var/log/exim_mainlog.log
...
/services/db/mysql/lib/mysql
/services/db/mysql/include/mysql
/services/db/content/dbase
/services/db/mysql/bin/mysql
This allowed us to know exactly where everything on the system would be,
incase we needed to transplant it over to another box we wouldn't have
to go searching for libraries, etc -- just pickup and replace one
directory and a kernel, if needed.
Like I said, it's a legacy force of habit that I haven't had any reason
to kick because it's useful still :)
