Also wanted to point out that 'netstat' returns the following line:

STREAM     CONNECTING    0 /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock

Never actually reads CONNECTED, even after hours.
I suspect this has something to do with the problem.

Permissions are currently wide open as follows
(though I've tried everything):

/var/                                   drwxr-xr-x   root     root
/var/lib/                               drwxr-xr-x   root     root
/var/lib/mysql                  drwxrwxrwx   mysql    root
/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock       drwxrwxrwx   mysql    root
/var/lib/mysql/mysql            drwxrwxrwx   mysql    root
/var/lib/mysql/*.err            -rw-rw----   mysql    root
/var/lib/mysql/*.pid            -rw-rw----   mysql    mysql (unless it was created by
trying to run the server as root)

the /var/lib/mysql/mysql directory is empty since mysql_install_db fails
when it runs the query it built. --skip-grant-tables and running as various
users has the same problematic effect.

Our site has been down for 24hrs now during our beta test...ouch.
Any ideas out there?
