ok let me explain first: rpm -qa lists all packages installed on your system
grep sql searches through the list for the string "sql" the conclusion i draw is that mysql is not installed. Therefore continue with your other thread about mounting the cdrom and installing mysql. actually IIRC (I am no longer a regular mandrake user) the installer program that Ross pointed out will tell you which cd you need, pop the drawer open and mount it when you close the drawer.
