Error 13 Permission Denied means that the mysqld process doesn't have permission by the filesystem to create whatever files/directories it needs to in the dir you have listed as datadir. Make sure mysqld is running as the right user (ps aux | grep mysqld) or chmod -R the datadir so mysqld can write to it.
