The mysql.server script , simple question

[Chris]

I've got a question the mysql.server script (came with 4.0.12 and 4.1.8 
at with the Linux binary distribution) . My shell scripting knowledge is 
not even good enough to be called 'limited', but here goes:

I'm trying to use mysql.server (Redhat 9)  to start MySQL in a 
non-standard location.

On line 47:
datadir=/usr/local/mysql/data
Should that line be datadir="$basedir/data" ?
I tried changing basedir to my new path, but it didn't quite work until 
I changed that line. I'm mostly asking because it *seems* right, but I'm 
essentially clueless and wanted to double check.

Thanks,
Chris
