Thanks you all for your nice suggestions. The thing is, for some reason, I could not stop the mysqld using 'mysqld stop'. Any insight about why this would fail?
Another question, which might not be a *pure* mysql one, is: I ran a script to load my mysql database, but it has not finished the job for almost 10 hours and now it is in *wait 4* state. Anything I can do about this? Should I wait till it is done or there is no hope and I just need to stop it and ran again?
