Use mysqladmin shutdown instead of kill 'cat /usr/var/$HOSTNAME.pid'.

By default safe_mysqld is located in /usr/bin/ or /usr/local/bin. You
can find location of safe_mysqld by using command
whereis safe_mysqld
To start and stop mysql server at boot and shutdown edit your
initscripts (it depends on how the Corel/Debian Linux is
handling the boot process).
