Typo I used /usr/local/mysql

To make a long stroty short , I downloaded the source
rpm and started over , now I have the mysql.sock file.
Looks like the download was currupt. I nned to use the
sourceeeeee as I am compliling some other stuff as
well. Ist want to get a good compile first.

2ndly,

The docs I am using use the following sysntex ,

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql \ 
            --localstatedir=/usr/loca/mysql/data \
            ----withunix-socket-path=/tmp/mysql.sock

Note the back slash at the end. Whats the back slash
for ?

I used   
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql  
            --localstatedir=/usr/loca/mysql/data 
            --with-unix-socket=tmp/mysql.sock         

All on one line.

Also how do you set the linux box (suse 7.2) to start
mysql on boot up ?
