 You have to create a file in your /usr/local/etc/rc.d directory that will
start (and stop) mysql.

 It needs to be 'chmod 755' (you could probably use chmod 700)

 And, it would likely contain something like this:

================= snip start==============
#!/bin/sh

case "$1" in
        start)
                if [ -x /usr/local/bin/safe_mysqld ]; then
                        /usr/local/bin/safe_mysqld --user=mysql > /dev/null &
                        echo -n ' mysqld'
                fi
                ;;
        stop)
                /usr/bin/killall mysqld > /dev/null 2>&1 && echo -n ' mysqld'
                ;;
        *)
                echo ""
                echo "Usage: `basename $0` { start | stop }"
                echo ""
                exit 64
                ;;
esac
================ end snippet ====================
