Hello List,
I have done some googling around but can't find an answer to this one.  Brand new box, 
installed with RedHat 9 and trying to run 4.1.2.  This is what I get.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] mysql]# scripts/mysql_install_db --user mysql --log

Installation of system tables failed!

Examine the logs in ./data for more information.
You can also try to start the mysqld daemon with:
./bin/mysqld --skip-grant &
You can use the command line tool
./bin/mysql to connect to the mysql
database and look at the grant tables:

shell> ./bin/mysql -u root mysql
mysql> show tables

Try 'mysqld --help' if you have problems with paths. Using --log
gives you a log in ./data that may be helpful.
