I was able to start the mysql server using this suugested by Egor

Egor > safe_mysqld&
[1] 15476
user_obscured:/# Starting mysqld demon with databases from /usr/local/var
nohup
/nfs/usr/libexec/mysqld --basedir=/usr/local --datadir=/usr/local/var --port
=30100 &

but after this response, the ssh session 'just sits there' - seems as if
it's waiting for further input - is ther a way to exit ther session - or is
this what I should / shouldn't be doing at this point?

Ian
