A newbie here, with a simple question (I guess).
I just installed MySQL on my OS X 10.2 But failed pretty quick. Please help me... I wanna get started.
This it what it looks like after following the description in the ReadMe file.

It sounds like you have to install the permissions tables.
Run this command:
/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_install_db
And then do as it says. After that, you should be able to start MySQL with the StartupItems script.
