i may be wrong but i guess you shouldn't need mysqlmax... all you need is to
specify that you want innodb at the compile time. For this, you should get
the source and not the binaries.... when you untar your mysql tar.gz (by the
way, why not using the last one 3.23.52 ?), you'll find a file called
INSTALL-SOURCE in which you'll read :

* If you want to configure `mysqld' with some extra features that are
     NOT in the standard binary distributions.  Here is a list of the
     most common extra options that you may want to use:

        * `--with-berkeley-db'

        * `--with-innodb'

        * `--with-raid'

        * `--with-libwrap'

        * `--with-named-z-lib  (This is done for some of the binaries)'

        * `--with-debug[=full]'


Have fun ;-))
