get a source at www.mysql.com, usually it is a mysql-x.x.tar.gz
1. tar -zxvf mysql-x.x.tar.gz
2. cd mysql-x.x.x
3. ./configure
4. make
5. make install
6. scripts/mysql_install_db
7. cp support-files/mysql.server /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql
8. chmod a+x /etcrc.d/init.d/mysql
9. setup
10. System services and check mysql
the next time you restart your system mysql will run automatically or
/usr/local/bin/safe_mysqld &
Hope this will help!
